Ryan, I’m not sure how to get companies to agree. I would venture to say that as it is with all business, you have to build a relationship and prove yourself first. You can’t just walk in hollering about how great you are and expect changes to happen. The better we are at our jobs (and we are good, aren’t we?), the more negotiating power we have.

These are some really interesting ideas. I find myself working wayyy more than 40 hours a week now that I started a website/blog, and I always recommend taking on some type of entrepreneurial side project. However, for people who really do want to work as employees, finding two interchangeable jobs is a great idea!

So how do we get companies to agree?

Thanks, Tiffany. Rocking the boat is one of our specialties I think. My day is already a lot like #1, I just don’t get paid for everything I do and I work much more than 40 hours. ;) It’d be nice to incorporate all of my passions into the “ultimate position.”

And it’s my pleasure to have you on my blogroll!

Hey!
These are some interesting ideas. I think a lot of whether this will work for people or not depends on their industry, and their willingness to rock the boat a bit. But I suspect we’ll start seeing things like this more and more as the workplace evolves.

Also, I wanted to let you know I added you to my blogroll. Thanks for having me on yours!

Keep up the good writing.
