I’m currently interviewing for a local network admin job. The odd thing is, I’m still not totally sure I want to take it, even though I’m going through the process. Of course, that presumes they consider me qualified for the position to begin with, which is hardly a slam dunk. Still, I have some reason to believe the odds favor an offer.
As I said though, I’m still trying to figure out if I really would want to take the job. The simplest way to look at it is, being an SAHD offers a kind of freedom that having a job just can’t match. It isn’t all strawberries and cream, but once the routine is settled into, things, well, take on a life of their own.
My thoughts aren’t real well organized at the moment, so I won’t go into it further. But I’ll be back with more when the times comes. Suffice it to say that, the biggest surprise, is the realization that the decision (to give it up or not) will be harder than I thought it would be.
