[quote=Anonymous]I peaked like my second year at 85k. It was some weekend bonus program as a bedside nurse where they paid me for 4 nights of work with only working 3 nights. After the GFC, the program was eliminated so I was back to like 70k or so for straight time. I quit in 2015. After having kids, I had logistical difficulties returning to nightshift and found a remote job during the day in a different field once I was ready to return in 2021. Of course I started from scratch and the pay was crap. I am due a raise to 65k for part time work so finally getting somewhere after several years. Undecided if it was worth it. I don't know what else I could have done other than marrying someone else with a more normal work schedule or just not having kids. I am a grass is greener type, at the time I couldn't wait to quit my job as a nurse, but then being a SAHM wasn't what I expected so I was happy to get back into the workforce. For me, a little of both is the best balance I guess. [/quote]
