I've been out of the workplace for 8 1/2 years (with varying degrees of freelancing during that time). I used to be a magazine editor. For my mental health I need to start working again, but worry about being able to get a salary that can pay for a sitter/housekeeper/chauffer, etc. Where do I even start??? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

You are talking about hiring a housekeeper and a chauffer. I assumed you outsource everything. But anyway, hiring a pro to write your resume is very common. A resume is a marketing document. Nothing wrong with paying for some polish. [ Reply | More ]

Why the heck you need so much help? Get a job, put dc in daycare, clean your own apartment, and take the bus like the rest of us. [ Reply | More ]

You need a nanny or daycare, or to work a shift opposite dh's hours. You don't need a housekeeper or a chauffer. [ Reply | More ]

OP: Hey dummies, I was talking about hiring someone to do all the shit I do all day long with 3 kids. It was not meant to be taken literally, though given the types of posters that frequent UB I guess I see why some of you couldn't see past the rivers. Thanks for the advice! Get your heads out of your asses! [ Reply | More ]
