Description

"Slashing – When full-time jobs are few in number, employees might have to take on more than one role to meet their financial obligations and fill a 40+ hour workweek. Slashing – a type of career “multi-tasking” – has provided some workers the opportunity to pay the bills and stay afloat. Many may actually enjoy the variety of their roles, even though they may prefer a less dissociative career path. Sometimes, slashing can allow an individual to pursue an entrepreneurial dream, while still working at another role. But, how many of these individuals will choose to stick with this option when the economy stabilizes? What are the long-term ramifications for careers and pay?"
