[quote=Anonymous]No. I went into consulting right out of college. I had lots of options and choices along the way while building my career. I kept doors open and when I needed more flexibility and less hours, the dues I paid in grueling hours and tons of travel during my 20s paid off. Lots of people want a job like mine - work from home, 34-40hrs, $150k+, but people fail to realize that most people with well paying flexible jobs spend 10+ years laying the foundation to have that job. I got stupid lucky. I did not think about work life balance at all until I turned 30. My parents jobs were not flexible - factory worker and teacher - but they were both home every night by 5pm so I never realized how much commute length mattered. [/quote]
