How many of you are out there working right now and every day you wish for a different kind of schedule? One that does not suck the life out of you and your family and/or other parts of your life? A work schedule that allows you to enjoy and give focus to all of the important aspects of your life? I think this is something that we all aspire to at one point or another in our careers. Yet, many of us have no idea how to go about making the change, not to mention finding a job/employer who is open to a more flexible type of schedule.

Although statistics probably show that more women than men are moving towards a flexible work schedule, the statistics in the male population are also on the rise: 74% of men rate having a work schedule that allows them time with their families as very important “and” 44% of fathers are willing to take a ‘pay-cut’ in order to spend more time with their children (according to statistics reported on NeedleStackJobs.com).

In addition, there are those of you who will continue to work, even after retirement, along with those who would like to spend more time volunteering to a cause, yet need to continue working - or want to just have more personal freedom. The list of reasons is long and flexible scheduling is something that has become important to the majority of us and we are in need of more information and support in order to make it happen in our lives.

Good news - NeedleStackJobs.com is just the place for you if you are someone who wants to seek a more flexible work schedule. Just head over there and search their site for employers who are looking for someone with your needs, or go ahead and post your resume. It’s free to join. They also have an extensive ‘links’ page where you can get lots more information.

So, if a flextime schedule is something your looking for, take the steps to begin making it happen in your career. It might not happen immediately, but if you don’t begin to do the research and stay open to who is looking for someone like you in a flexible arrangement - when will it happen? Take the lead.
