On September 19, discussions about the compensated off-days system topped Weibo's trending list. Netizens and bloggers criticized the system for shuffling weekend days to piece together long holidays, aiming to boost consumption rather than guarantee rest. They noted that the two-day weekend and paid leave systems have long failed to be implemented, leading to increased fatigue among the public. Weibo's official account also interpreted the system's design as being born out of domestic demand-driven motives, triggering strong dissatisfaction among netizens over policies ignoring public opinion.
