Offering a new approach to a flexible work model, Direct Home Sales companies tell women they can, in fact, have it all and not feel guilty. In DHS, work time is not measured by the hands of the clock, but by the emotional fulfillment and fun it brings. Drawing from numerous interviews with consultants and observations at company-sponsored events, Paid to Party takes a closer look at how Direct Home Sales promises to change the way we think and feel about the struggles of balancing work and family. 410 0$aFamilies in focus. 606 $aHome parties (Marketing)$xSocial aspects 606 $aDirect selling$xSocial aspects 606 $aWomen sales personnel 606 $aWomen$xEmployment$xSocial aspects 606 $aFlexible work arrangements 606 $aWork and family 615 0$aHome parties (Marketing)$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aDirect selling$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aWomen sales personnel. 615 0$aWomen$xEmployment$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aFlexible work arrangements. 615 0$aWork and family. 676 $a381/.14 700 $aMullaney$b Jamie L$01604779 701 $aShope$b Janet Hinson$f1961-$01604780 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823789103321 996 $aPaid to party$93929747 997 $aUNINA
