[quote=Anonymous]Some people choose a certain life style over money. I've been working 50-55 per week for 5 years, I rather take a pay cut than work these hours. Their is no point in making extra money if you can't use it for fun things. I only recommend taking on extra hours of you are in debt, otherwise enjoy your free time. We all live once and working yourself to death in an industry where you can't get promoted and grow with the company is not worth the time investment. There are very few nanny positions that can offer what corporate jobs can and you accept these nanny positions over a more long term stable position because of convience, better starting pay, and flexibility. If the job stops offering those then you should look for another. Don't waste time in this industry if you lose what persuade you to be apart of it. From a financial aspect you rate you're better off getting an admin job where you get better benefits and have room to grow. Pay may be similar or less but 5 years from now you will be making more then most nannies. Long term gains is more important. However, many stay in this industry for so long because they truly love this type of work or they have no means of acquiring a job at the same pay rate in a different field. Decide where you see your future then decide if it's worth accepting more hours for a less then ideal quality of life.[/quote]
