[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have $160k a year and job security and you want the same $ for less work and less job security? (Unless govt). [/quote] Do you need your salary? Does your DH make the real $$$? Getting tenure and having older kids, you are already likely mid-30s right? So switching to industry, as a part timer you would be vulnerable to lay offs. A govt job could be strict 40 hrs/week, and fairly secure but unlikely to get that high pay without supervision. You should look at National Academies of Science -- are you in DC region?[/quote]
