I am just curious about what part-time options are out there

Thanks!

I have an office job (in marketing) and I moved to a 3 day/week schedule. I'm in the office Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 to 5, which gives me a nice long weekend every week. Of course my pay also went down accordingly, but I'm happy with the switch.

I used to teach HS English so I tutor 2 kids. It's not a regular income, but the extra cash helps.

I work in a call center. Call centers are GREAT for part-time work, especially if you're willing to do nights and weekends.

I am an office manager/exec assistant for an asset management company. My position was cut to part time for a myriad of reasons. Luckily I made such a good hourly before that even working 20 hrs, I still manage to make more than most full time positions are starting at in AZ. Unfortunately I still have a 40hr a week workload and 20 hrs to do it in. I can pretty much make my own schedule but I have settled on M-Th 8-1.

I work with 6 year olds after school or 4 hours but my job is through the school system so I still get the great benefits which is a HUGE plus.

I worked full time for a freight forwarder as the pricing manager. I now do the same job part time from home. I am much less the manager now, but I basically do the same job. I get paid 50% of my FT salary but no benefits. I work from 7am-11am. It works for me.

I just requested to go PT and was told it's ok! I'm starting after the holidays and will go from 40 to 30 hours with Wed. off and getting off an hour early on Tues. and Thurs.

I'm a pharmacist. I work 32 hrs, which is still a lot, but managed to get a set schedule where I work every other weekend and Tues-Thurs. It worked well since DH is a nurse and works three 12's...so most of the week the kids are home with either one of us. We use a sitter maybe once a week, sometimes twice.

I work at Baby Gap! I don't make a ton of extra money, but it is nice to use that as our "fun" money. Also, the 50% discount helps a lot when buying clothes (hers and mine)!! I only work nights and weekends, when my husband can watch Paisley.

My FIL owns a sports bar so I work Friday nights and Sundays during football games and make enough to pay for majority of our groceries and some "fun" money.
