[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op again.  I should have mentioned upfront that my current job can't exist forever... even without being bored, I think I have maybe 1-2 years more before my job does not exist in the same way anymore.  My instinct in starting to look elsewhere was that it might take a while to find something great, and I would rather start that search now than when I *had* to.

So while I understand that my current flexibility is AMAZING, in my job search and looking around at friends' and colleagues' jobs, it seems like a bit of a unicorn in my field... and my sense is that I am going to have to give up some flex when I shift jobs anyway.  I just don't know how much I will have to give up.  (For example, 1-2 years ago, lots of jobs in my field were mostly remote, with many 1-2 days in the office; now almost all of them are at least 3 days in).[/quote]

This changes a lot and definitely needed to be in your original post.

You obviously came here looking for permission and not our honest opinions. So give it a shot. See if your DH will step up. See if you feel spread too thin. See if the new dream job is all it's cracked up to be. And if any of these don't pan out, you can job hunt in another year when your current job would have ended.[/quote]
