I've been banging my head against 'the wall' for months now. I don't feel like I can continue giving 49 hours of my week to work. I miss my family, and I have zero time to spend with them.
I earn a pretty average salary, but we finished making payments on a long term direct debit recently and it's net us a bit of spare cash.
If I were to drop down from 5 to 4 days a week, we'd be in roughly the same position that we've been in for the last couple of years.
Of course, I've considered that if I were to continue working 5 days a week, I'd have that extra expendable income and it'd be a lot easier to save for the future.
I hate feeling trapped but I just don't know what to do.
Anybody been in a similar position and gone for it? How is it working out? Was it worth it?
