[quote=Anonymous]In your case there is obviously a difference in total hours (and presumably total pay), but two thoughts, one pro and one con, related solely to arranging the same number of hours into 5 short days vs 3 long days: - Working 5 days means you'll be incurring pretty much all the costs of a full-time schedule (Metro/parking, clothing, lunch) and all the lost commuting time, but with a lower salary. - If this matters in your workplace, a 5-day arrangement is much less visible than being out of the office on set days. I work in a law firm and there are associates that no one realizes are PT because they are in the office every day, just for shorter hours. Makes it easier to transition into and out of PT without having the dinosaur partners write you off as less committed.[/quote]
