Most businesses will have to have some kind of work schedule or it simply will not work. I once worked for a company that tried to let people do whatever they want and it was a disaster. They told us the building would be open from 8am to 9pm mon-sat and we could work any combination of hours/days so long as it added up to 40.

It lasted about 6 weeks before they had to stop because it was chaos. Nobody knew when anyone was going to be in or what hours they were going to work. It made scheduling meetings a pain in the ass. They even found it caused logistical issues like everyone wanting to work early on Friday then come in late on Monday.

I could see how it could work for some businesses but for most it is simply not an option.
