Could I finally be free to leave my ridiculous job? Tomorrow morning is the big day: The day I tell my boss that I'm willing to keep working part-time, but I'm not coming back full-time. My FMLA time runs out Monday, so Tuesday is the last day they have to let me work part-time. I'm really not sure what will come of it. They'd be pretty stupid to let me quit right now, considering that Senneca just left for her maternity leave and Christy would be the only Project Specialist left. But frankly, they don't have a track record of making wise/reasonable decisions. I'm really okay with whichever way it goes. If it weren't for the fact that we could use some extra income while we wait for our house to sell, I wouldn't even consider staying. I'd love to be able to stay home and take care of Josiah everyday. But the two days-a-week schedule isn't so bad and it's much more profitable than any other part-time work I could look for. So we'll see what happens. I doubt I'll have an answer tomorrow... considering we've still been waiting over a year for a revised job description!! But they'll have to let me know by Tuesday... because no matter what, I'm not coming in on Wednesday!

Melissa, it sounds like you're at a cross-roads. I bet you would be great at working from home...there are so many ideas swimming in my head for you.....you could have the best of both worlds...I think all mom's would ideally love to stay home with their children, but as you know...this day and age, it takes two incomes to have the basics in life. It's so rare anymore to see mom's staying at home. I hope you get to follow your dream...
