I work 20 hrs a week and can set my own schedule. Should I work 2.5 full days? Or 5 half days? Trying to figure out what would be easier with schedule and pumping and all.
-
That's tough. Is it possible to try both and see which one works better for you?
Having 4.5 days off would be nice but so would only working half the day. I think I would work 2.5 days though.
-
I'd probably work 2.5 days too. It would scale back on my cost of daycare.
-
How's your commute? I have a pretty long commute, so I'd do 2.5 days so that I'd only have to drive in 3 days instead of 5. Also, I think having 2 full days off would be really nice.
-
I think I'd go with the 2.5 full days. I feel like I'd get more done if I had full days off rather than half days!
-
I was leaning towards 2.5 days. The thought with 5 was trying to avoid having to pump.
-
I'd work two 10's! If that were feasible
-
Oh I'd do the full days and have more time off, for SURE.
-
I would do the 2.5 full days too. I'd rather have a few full days off with LO than going to work every day.
-
Full days. Half days don't leave much room for things like doctor's appointments and other time-consuming events/errands.
ETA: Half days may have the effect of making you feel as if you work full time (because you are there 5 days a week).
-
My inclination would be to do the 2.5 full days to cut down on care costs. Pumping at work isn't too bad. I go out to my car, which isn't ideal, but it works.
-
I'd go for 2.5 full days because of commute and I rather have full days to do whatever instead of half.
-
Another vote for 2.5 days....I know that when I go in for only half a day it is much harder to get things done than if I go in for the full day.
