You know what, I've never thought about that possibility at all. Usually, when you hear about starting a business while working, you're just working extra hours on top of your 9-5.

Maybe I can try that with the leave I have saved up and then ease my way into a part-time gig. Well, after I start making money on the side business.

Thanks for the insight.

1st step, going from 5 days / week to 4 days / week is pretty much a no brainer. You get 50% more free time for 20% less money. I did that 2 years ago and never looked back. Sometimes I switch to 3 days / week, then back to 4 days, depending on how I feel. But I would never consider a "full time job" more than 4 days / week. But sure, I am getting shit done, so I don't have a problem asking for that.

Well said! Just for a statistical curiosity, which weekdays do you work? :)

Mon-Thu or Mon-Wed. I like long weekends. Not that it matters really.
