[quote=Anonymous]Where do you live OP? The commute can be killer depending on how far out you have to go to get home/into DC each day. DH works on Capitol Hill. It's tough, no doubt (3 young kids at home) on both of us - him for the stress, me b/c it makes for a really long day and little face time for the kids. There is a salary cap too and health care is on the DC exchange. There are differences between the Senate and House and also among the offices. Some run their offices tighter than others and if your Senator, for example, is Chair of one of the Committees it gets even more intense. Every 2 or 6 yrs (House and Senate, respectively) your future is in limbo as the election cycle starts. Not fun, but part of the nature of the beast. What specific job are you looking for OP? Like an LD or LA position? Committee work?[/quote]
