Today’s employees want more options, and working part-time is one of them. So, what exactly qualifies as part-time work? The answer varies depending on the company.

Today’s Time Well Spent from our friends at Kronos reminds me of that old saying, “ Good, Fast, or Cheap – Pick Two ”. The saying represents the idea that we can get quality quickly, but it will cost us. If we want it quickly and inexpensively, then it might not be that good.
