[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't give up looking for a job! It may take awhile but it is doable. In general, the market sucks right now so even those with jobs have difficulty finding work. After my child was born, I did not SAH but there were definitely times when I wished that I had and I totally respect and understand if someone made a different decision than I did. Please don't think that ALL employers will look negatively on your decision to stay home. Even though I did not do it, if someone that I really liked was a SAH, that would not deter me from hiring the person. As someone who has had to hire people before, I like employees that are good at what they do but also value quality of life and outside activities. The fact that you SAH shows me you have this quality. Anyhow, GOOD LUCK!!![/quote] I appreciate that you are trying to give encouragement, but my guess is that you are in the minority. A woman who has been organized and motivated enough to both have a career and a family will always score more points in my book than a SAHM when making hiring decisions. Add in someone who is healthy and active and I give double credit. [/quote] So you do realize that calling all SAHMs disorganized and unmotivated just makes you look stupid, right? PP, go ahead, get out there and meet some mom friends! You can do it!! There is a whole world out there outside your cubicle!![/quote] I didn't call all SAHMs disorganized or unmotivated, but I do know many that are. Thanks for the name calling, though, because that surely gives credit to your point. Why would you think I don't have mom friends? All of my friends are moms. And I have an office, thank you very much.[/quote]
