I worked in retail management, was a flight attendant for many years(when you actually got service with a smile!) and was an account executive which required long commutes. When I look at another poopy diaper and think of the locales I have seen and the executive perks I used to enjoy I know right now I am where I need to be. I don't have to deal with annoying co-workers or have to deal with office politics or put up with that boss you can't stand and the people skills I did learn I use on some of those parents that can annoy the heck out of us. My home life is not rushed because I am here and I and my family are happy. Should I start feeling like I want something more, I can always go to night school and take a course or think of a small other busines like Reggio. I have always wanted to write, so sometimes while I'm changing that diaper I am thinking of plot lines for a story. We women are great multi taskers, so while we do this job, we can tinker with something else we might want to pursue.
