Hey Pegasus,
I'm not real familiar with your situation but have to agree with others that you need the T.
Here is couple ideas but might not work where you live.
You need to tell the people you work for that you must have off on Thursday. Sometimes you can sway days. Work Saturday instead of Thursday. Or may be work 10 hour days for 4 days a week. Or work one day from home and the other days in the office.
Good luck.
