I think I'll prob end up going that route as soon as the kid is older and I'm ready to work a 40-50 hour week. There's just no way an in-house job would let me be 70% time and pay me well enough for me to hire a nanny.Alice in Wonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11566311260826920486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10556933.post-57083994532115579202012-08-11T11:44:07.387-05:002012-08-11T11:44:07.387-05:00As someone who works the same job as you but on th...As someone who works the same job as you but on the litigation side I am curious whether you are considering something in between quitting and The Firm such as government or in-house. Do you not think it's worth it to work if you aren't making a biglaw salary? Just wondering as I'm still considering having kids and this post scares the bejesus out of me because it confirms what already seemed like the obvious reality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10556933.post-30449018623441591832012-08-09T15:26:15.851-05:002012-08-09T15:26:15.851-05:00Hmmm...I was never a SAHM.
