Work vs SAHM

Chapter79

How many of you are SAHM's?

 How many of you work?

If you work, what do you do?

I'm pretty sure this was asked before, but I'm having a mind fart.

I work full-time as an admin assistant at a college.  I love my job

I work 30 hrs/wk, so I'm usually home with DS on Fridays, which I love. I'm an ecologist at an engineering firm.

I'm a SAHM. My Husband brings home some stuff for me to do from his job sometimes, and I get paid for that.
Also, I get sporadic work as a delivery driver. Not pizza! I deliver trucks to dealers. Big ass trucks, lol (think F450, F550, Ram 5500, etc) I love it. Best job ever
Work is dead right now, though...until late March.. boo

I work full time at a plumbing HVAC company doing inside sales and proposal follow up. I hate it. But I make good money and am now making more than my DH. So I guess I am stuck

I wish more people could understand moderation. I cringe when I hear someone say "I can't eat that because it's unhealthy," or "This is good for me so I can have more." Eating isn't black or white. Recently I had a friend that was upset about a certain ingredient that was possibly being used in some Starbucks coffee so she's sworn off all their coffee because it isn't "natural." Then she excused herself to go outside and smoke. Sigh.

I forgot to answer the question. I work at a university and my actual title is director of marketing and communications but with all the cuts, I've really ended up broadening my role so I lead the creative team as well as the training/instructional design team (my master's is in ID and I'm actually all but dissertation on a PhD that I will never finish). It's only 5 people total between the two teams and I have to step in and actually lend a hand a lot on projects, too. I really love it, though. I like my teams and it's a super flexible environment for me as a mom. I wouldn't leave for double the salary elsewhere because those type of benefits are worth way more than money.

People always assume that I don't want dessert. Say what?

*waves to fellow librarian/spreadsheet aficionado*

I actually work specifically for the Library System at our university so I'm kind of a librarian by proxy as well.

Okay, really just a lawyer.  I work full-time and then some and I love it.  The "then some" gets done after L is asleep and that flexibility is so important to me.
