[quote=Anonymous]I did a PT WAH job for many years when mine were in preschool and elementary. It kept me in the company, building my reputation, working on big projects, making contacts, etc. Now the kids are in HS and MS and I'm back full time in another role. PP who stated that flexibility is much more available now than 10 years ago is spot on. I've seen it here - no full time people could WAH when I took the job, then it's 1 day a week, and now it's based on your manager. I WAH 2x a week, plus all sick and snow days, and will take an hour at lunch to hit up the grocery store & the cleaners. I get laundry & meal prep done on WAH days. Add in the fact that I'm upgrading my skills, keeping current with the latest tech, meeting people in the industry, etc. I just got a bonus + merit increase. It's a great Mom job - I'll never leave![/quote]
