whoa, trippy - i didn't know tech companies were going the part-time route already. that's the one danger about the 4-day work week i'm not crazy about. my guess is, if you had a relatively valuable skillset, say coding of some type that was reasonably in demand for, say, a contract rate in the US that would get you $65/hr or more on a W-2 basis, then you would be able to find some decent, possibly long-term work _if_ you were willing to put in the effort. what's the effort? start pitching companies. find full-time listings and submit your resume, tell them what you're seeking (20 hours/wk, 4 hrs/day, $50/hr, employed normally, but just part-time instead of full time, presumably no bennies, etc.), and that's about it. ping 10 companies a day from the "Who's hiring?" threads, and see what you get back, rinse, refine, repeat. also, pay linkedin $30/mo and ping dev managers directly with your pitch. and try to talk to an HR-type person at a startup to get the lowdown on what it would actually take to get hired part-time - it might end up being pretty simple, or not, but you'd be in a much better position if you knew, and might not take more than a simple message or phone call, or ask a friend of a friend who is in HR.
