I went back to work in January after the birth of my second child. I decide to go back for 4 days a week, Mon-Thurs, and am finding that I have the same workload as for full-time. People seem to forget I'm not in on Fridays and I have constantly remind them. I'm thinking of dropping down to three days in the New Year, as then you really are part-time and work can't forget that. Has anyone else experienced this? I have a generally very good employer, so the moan is not about them, but about the general perception of what 4 days work means.

4 days work means 5 days workload crammed into 4 for 80% of the money
