[quote=Anonymous]My career sort of evolved to fit with my choices. I'm one of the lucky attorneys. I spent five years in biglaw in New York working, working, working. I moved to DC and worked at DOJ for four years (and in that time got married and had two children). I left DOJ and went in-house and worked at a company that had a very liberal leave and work from home vibe. And on top of it, the company was across the street from my kids' daycare and 15 minutes from my house. I would literally go home and crock pot dinner and clean during my lunch break. It was great until it went out of business, sadly. Now, I work at a trade association. It is a strict 8-4 schedule, which is fine. I drop off my kids in the morning at SACC and get them a little before 5. Sometimes we go to karate or kumon, but generally we are home by 6. I've always made a decent living, but I've had to hustle and job hop, which some people don't enjoy. [/quote]
