[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going to be blasted for this but - teaching. Work at 7, home by 4. Tons of vacation. [/quote] I'm a prof and say the same. It's 3:08pm right now. I've been correcting final papers from home and am now off to pick up the critters. Summers off, so it was no problem pulling DD out of the second session of camp last summer when it didn't seem a good fit for her. She hung out with me for a few weeks before school started. I can take DS to therapy each week without taking time off. It's great. The pay is not. That's the trade off. I get to do what I love and they basically get a SAHM. [/quote] +1. Taking a break from grading papers to skim DCUM before picking up the kids from school But, a lot of things have to fall into place in order to get a tenured position. There are a lot of hard-working smart PhDs out there for whom that brass ring is out of reach through no fault of their own.[/quote]
