[quote=Anonymous]I left my stressful (relatively) high pay job about 5 years ago, and got a government admin. asst. job making 1/3 of the previous salary.

After 5 years, I looked back and still doesn't regret the decision. I had high blood pressure, weight gain, sleeping, relationship problems before the "downgrade". Now I work 7am-3:30pm, in time to back home and take care DD after school, off on weekends + federal government holidays.

If I make a mistake at work as AA, no one will get hurt (financially or physically). Now I sleep so well, have a happy relationship with DH and DD, so catch up on TV, yearly oversea vacation. We no long able to send DD to private school, but it all worth it. I do a better job to teach DD than the private school teacher anyway. I am so glad DH supported me (and able to support the family. frankly, my current salary after deduction can only cover DD's extra curr activities + annual vacations).

As for how to get your foot in getting a government AA job? Apply for Temp/intermittent/seasonal first, get your foot in, learn all the government software/system. you will naturally get hired as soon as a perm position is available.

Hope it helps.[/quote]
