DD#2 is working 32 hrs 4 days per week now, said she would prefer working 3 days 24 hrs per week so that she can spend more time with her baby son.

I can tell you from experience that taking the ‘easy’ option and ‘not working/having a job’ i.e. being a full time, stay at home Mum, is a lot more work than ‘working’!

DD is waiting for an opening position of working 3 days per week.Also a nurse, work in outpatient day surgery. Usually only work 3 days a week . Some days are long, some breeze by. Some days are stressful, some are not. Often depends on what surgeon I'm working with! But my days off are always full of errands and appointments. Since I work less than my husband, I do more of the things that keep my family ship afloat: shopping, bill paying, etc.
I’m a teacher. It’s an easy job Bc I love my kids! My school day starts at 8 and is over at 2:45. I typically go in at 7:30 and leave by 4 pm. That includes a 45 min lunch. 55 min prep period and because I am very efficient and refuse to bring work home, I utilize that time to the maximum. I work hard but it’s fun! Not a day goes by that my kids don’t make me laugh, inspire me or leave me in awe! Very rewarding.
