Today I talked to my boss about working part time. I have realized over the last couple of weeks that I really want to spend more time with Cleo. I don't want to quit working though, because I think I'd go crazy and we also need the money and benefits.
So I've asked my boss if I can start working 3 days a week only. He didn't say "no", but he has to run it up the chain to see what they say. Our department is in a state of uncertainty right now and no one is quite sure where we are going to land. So the timing is either really good or really bad. Either way, I am hoping we can work something out.
It will be tough though because I'll only make about 1/2 of what I make now. But I am confident that we can make it work. If not, I'll either try to come back full time or have to get a second job or something (yikes).
I am hoping to start this new schedule in about 3 weeks, but need to wait for approval from the higher-ups. Fingers crossed!
