[quote=Anonymous]4 days, 20 hours, 9:30-3. When I interviewed for this job I asked if I could actually accomplish it in 20 hours and the answer was "not at first, but after you get the swing of things, definitely." Boss was right. My office does not allow me remote access to my email and they flat out said they can't afford to pay me more so I'm not supposed to work extra hours. I don't. And frankly I don't need to b/c the workload is easily manageable. There are 2 other part-timers here but they were originally FT who went part-time b/c the office didn't want to lose them. So I'd say I lucked out in terms of respect given to a real part-time job. Do I worry about not contributing to retirement? Yes. But this is the decision DH and I have made b/c we have a young kid. I love that I still work in my field, maintain all the contacts I had in it outside my office, and still have a lot of extra time. Just wish I didn't need to sleep as much. Then I'd get a lot more done.[/quote]
