Job Time Share

 Do someone else's crappy job for two weeks
 
(0) 		  [vote for,

This service matches up people and their jobs with other people and their jobs in other locations. It works for jobs with the minimal ammount of training between two persons.

It could be two people with the same job in different locations of a multinational company, or it could be a group of companies who have an agreement together to share employees. At the very least it is someone who is willing to cover for you for the 2 or so weeks while you go somewhere else.

If you don't mind working a shift when you visit a friend then more vacation opportunities are open to you and you get paid for it too.
