[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in the same boat. DH earns $2m per year and I will always be the default parent. I’m responsible for our 3 kids. I have considered going back to work but next year, I will have kids at 3 different schools with different start times, end times and activities.

[b]I would love a job that was from 10-2 four days per week. I don’t think such a job exists[/b].[/quote]

Of course they exist.  That’s what my housekeeper works.  That’s what I work.  That’s what my admin works.

But you don’t really want any of these jobs.  You don’t want to be anyone’s housekeeper or administrative assistant, but you don’t want the stress of running the show either.
  
You want a job that isn’t actually a lot of work, that doesn’t require a ton of training, that is extremely flexible if you want time off for five weeks of vacation, that is personally fulfilling, and that sounds good to your friends.  This is what doesn’t exist.  It isn’t the hours.

What do you do from 10-2 when you have your housekeeper and admin?[/quote]
