[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only times I've ever seen it work are with two women who propose a job share.[/quote]
This. Otherwise where do you think the rest if your work will go?[/quote]

To another company.

Where would it go if she got hit by a bus tomorrow?  I am sure there would be some way that it would get done or clients would deal with not having it done.  [/quote]

They would hire a replacement. Just like if she quit. The work would get done.[/quote]
Yes, if they are down 100% they’ll hire a replacement. But they aren’t just going to say - sure, OP, you can do 50% of your work and the other 50% just won’t get done 🤷🏻‍♀️[/quote]
It would get done somewhere else right?  I don't know what she does, but she is talking about dropping 1/2 of her clients.  If she is a therapist, then 50% of her clients would just go to another agency.  If she is a pediatrician, then 50% of her patients would go to another pediatrician's office.  If she is an attorney, then 50% of her clients would find another law firm to work with.  It's a big city.  I'm sure that the work will still get done.  [/quote]
Oh wow. Where do you work? You clearly don’t understand the business world. No company is going to voluntarily lose revenue to allow OP to work less. It’s easier to replace her. [/quote]
