Part Time Job

Most of us would prefer to have a part time job instead of a full time one. Everybody I know would love to have more time to spend with their family and loved ones instead of being at work all day. All of us feel the crunch of time when trying to get things done around the house and in our personal lives. Having a full time job sometimes makes it difficult to get everything accomplished that you would like to in your personal life. Learning how to manage your time is important for all of those who work full time.

Like most people I have many responsibilities that I would deal with in my extra time if I had a part time job. On a normal day there are many things around my house that need attention and other personal matters that need to be dealt with as well. Being at work 40 hours every week does make it difficult sometimes to take care of everything that I need to. Like most people I am willing to devote this amount of my life to a full time job because I need the money and the benefits in order to have the kind of life that I want.

When I was in college I held several part time jobs in order to pay for tuition and living expenses. As a graduate I was able to find a full time job that paid more than the two part time jobs put together. Once you find yourself in a situation where you are making more money than you ever have before, you will find that it is very difficult to walk away from it. As a young woman the bait that keeps me at my job is definitely the health insurance. I cannot afford health care or prescriptions without it.

If you are considering leaving your current position for a part time job, you must thoroughly weigh your options while keeping in mind the value of the benefits you may be leaving. A part time job may not offer you the income and benefits necessary to sustain your lifestyle and you could find yourself treading water very quickly. If, however, having a part time job would not be detrimental, you could be one of the lucky ones that all of us in the 9-5 rat race are jealous of.
