In my research into flexible jobs for when we have a LO one day, one option that really appeals to me is job sharing. Basically you and another person both work part-time, sharing one full-time position. You also share salary & benefits, so if you work 50% of the time, you get 50% salary, 50% vacation, etc.

Obviously this would work better for some jobs and not at all for others, but I think there are positions in my field where this could work well. It could even be a benefit to the employer, as the job sharers can arrange to cover each other's vacations and that sort of thing.

Have you ever heard of this or know anyone who does it?
