Section from paper cut by employee working on Weekend only perhaps (4-4)
I believe the answer is:
part-time
'employee working on weekend only perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'section from paper cut' is the wordplay.
'section' becomes 'part' (synonyms).
'from' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'paper cut' becomes 'time' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'part'+'time'='PART-TIME'
'by' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for part-time that I've seen before include "Not working full hours" , "For not the whole working week" , "For less than the standard number of hours" , "Working reduced hours" , "(Working) for a few hours a week" .)
