[quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHM, trying for two years to get back into the work force. Ivy degrees (2), yet I have gotten nowhere. I was surprised at first when I sent out my resume and didn't get a single response. The last time I looked, eight years ago, I found a job right away, and another job a year later. It wasn't difficult. Now, it seems impossible. Almost 50, and completely unemployable. Of course the economy is much worse, so factor that in, but it's a bleak picture, and yes, very scary. DH is close to 50, and suddenly his job is shaky. If he loses his job, I can't step in as I once could. That is keeping me up at night (in addition to the hot flashes). [/quote]
