Knew someone who moved to four days a week, but agency never respected the agreement and they always ended up working (in some capacity) on the day they were supposed to be off.
Pretty sure this is always what happens.
I was wondering about this too.
That is my dream. But I don’t know anyone who has done this.
Or you could just freelance.
Need steady. Freelance too much hunting for gigs, much clerical stuff.
But if you made it a 20 hours thing, for a flat rate, with any additional hours billable at a certain rate, that should protect you.
I did this during my last year as creative lead for an in-house brand. The team was already going through restructuring so I offered to continue my services in a part time freelance role for 8 months rather than leave outright, in order to assist with restructuring from a less direct position. Not sure it would work in this market when there are an abundance of desperate job candidates. I did this in 2019 and had a lot more leverage then.
