12 Preface This topic has a very personal significance to me. I married into a career of flexible work in 1985 and since then it has dominated our family life. My husband's succession of fixed-term contracts in hospital medicine meant that we had to move around the country several times since then: from Stoke-on-Trent to Manchester, from Manchester to Norwich, from Norwich to Cambridge. I managed to hold on to my permanent full-time job and was granted leave to roam around the country picking up jobs here and there as I went. Some of the readers of this book may have met me at times along this trail and asked, 'and what are you doing now?' in a puzzled tone, being none the wiser after I had told them. I have tried to juggle with this uncertainty. I have spent a lot of time 'keeping my options open', commuting long distances to work, and at times missing opportunities to further my own status and career in order for us to live together with the hope that we might both find jobs at the end of the trail. I sadly miss a friend who understood in Cathie Marsh, also married to a hospital medic, before she died. We have found the uncertainty of whether and where the next contract will be an enormous strain. In addition there's the strain and stress of moving house regularly, managing to make some friends just about the time when you have to move again, finding your way round new shopping centres, new nurseries and schools and settling the kids in, and telling everyone you've changed your address. These problems are common to jobs which require mobility and are not necessarily 'temporary' or uncertain. Some of the issues raised are also common to dual-career couples. The uncertainty of many flexible jobs adds another dimension to the stress, for the individual and their family. It is the never knowing whether you are staying or going, whether to work at making friends, spend time choosing somewhere to live where you would like to stay and become attached to, and constantly having to look through the job adverts, pleasing your bosses whose references you depend on, and so on. People could say, well you knew what you were getting into when you chose your career. The trouble is, you often don't. You don't know how difficult it will be to get the next job. It might have been easier when you started out than it has become when you face it. And you xiii
13 XIV Preface don't know everything about yourself and how you will cope with uncertainty coupled with the responsibilities of family life. Anyway, some individuals who have an entrepreneurial spirit may cope just fine, but many don't, and there is still their partner to consider. Our journey through this uncertainty was ended by my husband changing his career since his stand on various ethical issues in the health service lost him the final prize of a consultant's job. He hadn't pleased the bosses enough. I am in no doubt that the productivity of my own work has been lowered over the past few years by all of the events linked to our participation in the flexible economy. I am fairly sure that my husband's work has suffered as well. For every flexible job, potentially two people may be working at lower than their best because of the stressful conditions of many such jobs. A lot of this book is about statistics. I hope readers will not forget that the lives of real people lie below the figures about flexible work, parts which can sometimes get lost in a presentation of statistics, important as the overall picture is.
