Is anyone here only working part-time? Is it even possible? I enjoy working in community management but I'm also planning to open an online business and I was wondering if I can split my time and energy between two different jobs.

You can definitely can. As long as you know how to manage your time correctly without compromising one from the other. You should also set your priorities so you will know which one to give more attention when requires.

Community management can be a part-time job, but it really depends on the company and position. I know some people who do community management as their full-time job and others who do it part-time alongside another job. For me personally, I think it would be possible to split my time between the two if I'm organized and have a good handle on time management.

Yes, there are people who work part-time. I have a number of friends who only work three or four days a week so they can dedicate more time to their families or other interests. Yes, it is possible to split your time and energy between two jobs if you plan and manage your time well.

Its definitely possible to work part-time and have another job on the side. Ive done it before when i was opening my business. Time management is key though, you need to be able to split your time efficiently between the two otherwise itll be too overwhelming.

I'm currently working part-time and I think it is possible to split your time between two jobs. I have found that as long as you are organized and have a good schedule, it is definitely doable!

I've worked part-time before and it's definitely doable as long as you manage your time wisely. I think it would be tough to balance two different jobs though because they would both require a lot of attention and dedication. For me, I had to make the decision to either pursue one career path or the other in order to be successful.

I'm currently only working part-time and it's been going well so far. I think it is possible to split your time and energy between two different jobs, but it definitely takes some careful planning and time management. For me, having a more flexible schedule has been beneficial in terms of being able to balance my work with other commitments.

Yes, it is possible to work part-time while also starting a business. I have done it myself, balancing a part-time job in community management with running an online store. It takes careful time management, but it can be done. It is also possible to outsource certain tasks to free up some time.

There's nothing wrong with it if you can make ends meet and aren't financially dependent on others. It's entirely up to you. Some people value time over money, which is a perfectly reasonable choice depending on your life objectives. I'm the same way. The most important aspect is that you manage your time effectively. Multitasking is not a difficult task, you simply need to get used to it.

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
