[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1068575, member: 43436"] You do realize the large breadth of jobs that have converted into part-time over the past 30 years? It's now creeping into professional occupations: a school district local to me recently won approval to convert 25% of teaching positions in middle & high school into part-time positions. This isn't because these teacher's skills are only needed part-time -- it's because the school district can offer lower wages & no benefits, thus saving money. The same thing's happening to accounts, paralegals, etc. We're becoming part-time America. Not because workers want to work part-time -- many work two jobs as it is -- but because job creators are making it so, in order to make bigger profits. Heck, even UPS experimented (or is still experimenting?) with transitioning on-car sups to part-time several years ago. [/QUOTE]
