[quote=Anonymous]I've known people in those fields and it seems like there's a glut of talent, especially in cities like DC, NY and Boston. What she specializes in isn't exactly unique on the east coast. Journalism majors are a dime a dozen. I know some very talented writers who can't find real work to save their lives. And if she's 35+ she's up against a lot of younger, cheaper labor. It's her versus a load of recent college grads as well as students willing to intern for peanuts. Maybe she feels like she's peaked out in her field already. Maybe she needs to start small and fresh and work part time at something completely brand new-- use her multi-lingual skills and become a translator, for example? She could have gotten complacent staying home to care for a child and deep down enjoyed that a lot more than going to work. Not everyone loves going to an office and will take any opportunity to get out of it. [/quote]
