Eh, I think 30hr is totally fine. Just make it a 4-day work week and I'll probably get about the same amount of work done.

vitally important healthcare services are tied to your full time employment status

Insurance, yes. And I think that's completely BS, how much or where you work should have zero impact on your health insurance. Your employer shouldn't get to pick it, you should get to pick it. If we can separate insurance from employment, I think workers will be a lot less hesitant to leave crappy jobs...

I used to work 3 12s. Basically open to close 3 days a week at the store I worked at. I miss it so much. I don't care if I have to work long days if it means I get more days off. I had so much more time to work on personal projects due thanks to all the flexibility that provided.
