[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I miss that window of time when the possibilities seemed endless. Once you're in your 40's, your path is pretty much set until you get close to retirement. Plus having kids and a mortgage can make you feel kind of trapped at times because there's just so much adulting all the time to keep your life on track. [b]Related to that, I miss being more easily hireable. Once you get to a certain level of salary and job and you're in a niche, your options get limited. Plus if you own a place and have kids in school, you are generally looking in a narrower geographic area for jobs, which can limit things[/b].[/quote] This is so true. I'm sucking it up to keep my soul-crushing job that has a good salary, family-friendly work hours, and reasonable commute. There's no way 20-something-year-old me would have stayed at this hostile workplace.[/quote]
