If you are planning to return to work someday...

Mrs.Greg · March 2013

Do you want to return to the field you were in before? I was a legal assistant for 14 years. I loved my job for 13 years. I quit because I grew to hate my job, dreaded going to work everyday. I will never be a legal assistant again, if I ever return to work.

LalaMama81:
Would you consider getting your paralegal degree/certification? Seems like a logical next step if you want to stay in t

if returning to work happens in the next 4.5 years, yes i will go back to my field.

if i extend my time out of work until the youngest finishes high school, i will likely go get my masters in an in-demand field when the kids are in hig

I'm staring my own business as a consultant in my field and hope to never work for someone else again. I will always do some sort of work though. If I can't find enough consultant work I will probably try teaching CTE classes in my field (marketing/design

notreallyirish · March 2013

I was working on my Ph.D. in history, so I didn't have a job and it's not something I could jump back into. Sometimes I think about going back to school in the same or a different field, but I'm not sure that's what I want. I don't see myself

I didn't have much of a 'career' before SAH, honestly. I graduated with a Marketing degree, worked for 1.5 years as a Marketing Specialist until the company folded with the recession. I got married a few months after being laid off and got pregnant a f

lindslalala · March 2013

I honestly don't know if I'll go back into the same field. I was a substitute teacher, and one year of schooling away from my teaching credential. I still think it's my passion, but it would be hard to do 1 year of school + student teaching + having to ta

Yes I was, well still part time am an event planner. I love it! I would not go back into pharmaceuticals where I use to work.

Right now I plan the events for our local township and really like it, but when I do go back for g

Arnegard · March 2013

I was a probation officer when I quit.

I cannot see doing that job now that I have kids. Just too many weirdos and too many ways to get at your family, KWIM? Only takes one crazy family who lives in our town, going to school with my

I worked in museum education and would love to return to that field. Hopefully as the economy improves jobs will open up in that.

shortstuff15 · March 2013

I am planning on finishing my education degree and going back to work someday, so no, I won't be going back into the HR field again.

lisamoe · March 2013

I will return to work, at least part-time when we are through having kids and they are all in school.

I will stay in nursing.

anchalmasako · March 2013

I never had an established career in my field before I had children, which was right after I graduated with my bachelors. I SAH while I am getting a master's, and after I graduate this summer I plan to go into my field of work for the first time (aside fr

jnksmom · March 2013

I really don't know yet. I was a teacher and sometimes I miss it and think I want to go back. Other times I am not sure. If I do go back, I will have to get a Masters degree. It is not required but it s very hard to get a teaching job in my area without o

id012 · March 2013

probably not. The hours are awful and pretty unperdictable. If i did it wouldnt be full time at all and it would have to be on my terms which im pretty sure i could swing.

Maybe ill go to school when we are done with

roxy_jj · March 2013

If I go back, it will probably be in a different field. My field is rapidly changing and even now, there have been a lot of advancements since I left 3 years ago. I liked it, but I don't think I liked it enough to go through all the education

Baby_Bunny_Hopeful · March 2013

I was a legal asst as well before SAH... I have been a SAHM for 2.5 years, and literally a "legal asst" position fell in my lap (as in, the partner sought me out via email from a new firm and offered a VERY flexible position- I

My husband has five years left of his work contract and then retiring from the sport he does. We are pretty much set for the rest of our lives with the job he has now. I have been working at becoming a master scuba diver. I am hoping tha

Linnea503 · March 2013

If we absolutely needed a high-ish second income for some reason, I would return to my previous field. If not, I would prefer to do something more creative or open my own boutique or something in line with my interests.
