Debating

So I was on Craigslist today and found a job posting for Office assistant, 30 hours a week give or take.

Everything they've listed in the description I've done before other than the one thing they listed as optional.. now I'm debating about applying! Feel like that's kinda crazy though considering I'm due in about 12 weeks.

Re: Debating

  • I agree, if you plan on going back after the baby then go for it! But they may be reluctant to hire you since you're due soon.
  • I wouldn't mind since it'd be part time, and it isn't like we couldn't use the money... we'll see what I decide to do though.

    Unless you're planning to go back to work after the baby arrives I don't think it would be worth it.

    This.

    And if you did go back to work, isnt day care really expensive?

    Where we live it's not bad.. and I'd probably be able to get a family member to watch/take care of baby.

  • i wouldn't do it...i'd wait until after you're ready to go back..12 wks is not long enough to learn a new job, master it, and have them wanting you bad enough to stay...they'd have to backfill your position, because obviously, they're looking for somebody already.
