[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not for me. I ended up being paid for 20 hours but working closer to 35-40 hours per week. This was less than I would have otherwise, but very far from half time. It only works if you actually work half time. [/quote] This. I think it works for certain careers, like a nurse or in a school where your work is in person and you can't take it home. But if you work a corporate office job, particularly if you take your current job and go part time, you will likely end up doing the same work for less money. [/quote] People in schools take work home all the time, and not just the teachers. Have you seen a teacher’s bag when they walk to their car? It’s full of student work, documentation that needs to be updated, a laptop to answer all the parent emails they didn’t get a chance to respond to during the day, etc.[/quote]
