[quote=Anonymous]I had a job working for the federal government for 33 years. For the last four years I have been a part-time nanny. I occasionally run into former colleagues. When I tell them that I am a nanny now, half say "OMG. that is the perfect job for you! Good for you!" The other half say negative things like, "Eww, you work with kids. Yuck." Or "Nanny - there is not much money in that." Or something along the lines of "You should still be climbing the corporate ladder with all your professional experience and training. You should get a real job." So sometimes other people seem to be embarrassed for me that I am a nanny these days, but I enjoy it so much that I don't really care what others say. As a nanny, I get about 8 hugs a day. I don't think I got 8 hugs total in the 33 years I had a "real" job. [/quote]
