Bring Back the 40-hour work week (March 2012)
Perhaps this is a good thread to pose this question.<p>I am a front-end engineer in my early twenties. Right now, 40+ hours a week is doable and I am paid well, but I don't need all of the money I'm earning. I would <i>gladly</i> take a 50% salary cut and work ~20 hours a week.<p>The only problem with this is that I feel like this is a risky thing to bring up with an employer. Has anyone ever had any success getting a good part-time job or downsizing your position at a company? Every listing for part-time I see seems to be for someone with a lesser skillset.
