[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we get back to the topic?  I'm a SAHM, and I'm interested to know what it's like for other SAHMs that have gone back to work.  (I'm not OP.)

Does every thread have to derail to SAHM vs. WM?  Hold the judgment.[/quote]

i refuse to read all of the post on this thread, but this one i'd love to address.

i was a SAHM for 5 years, loved the first 2 and hated the next 3.  when my kids were 5 and 3, i went back to work for the Federal Government, full time, GS13.  it is FLIPPING AWESOME.  i love working, i feel so much more accomplished and good about myself.  i love the social aspect of my job.  i also like a lot of components of my job - some of it sucks, some if it i am not awesome at, but others parts of it i LOVE and am really good at.  i also have amazing bosses and decent coworkers.

so, in some, going back to work (not for financial reasons, DH makes a lot of $) for me was all about working and feeling good about it.  [/quote]

How did you manage to get a job with the Federal Gov't after 5 years?  [/quote]

I got my old job back. I am in a very specialized field. I am incredibly lucky!!!!![/quote]
