Is there anyone here who was a SAHM for a time before going back to work at an accounting job? How did it go? I’m curious how long you were out of the work force and if you tried to find a part time job

I'm planning to do this. I want to be with my babies while they're growing. I can always find another job later.

Yes, my cousin took 5 year leave because she had 3 kids in that time frame. Went back to public once they started school. Came back to the same firm, at the same level (left as SM), like nothing changed. Eventually ended up making partner.

So I just came out at my small firm in a small southern town. Historically, I haven’t discussed my personal life at work— but I had to give notice anyway. I told the partners I’m moving to be with my boyfriend. It was a surprisingly lovely conversation given that I’m at a firm of rich old men, deep in the heart of Tr*mp country.

Anyone else a bit annoyed with the announcers right now? I get you disagree with the decision to not start the race, but man there was so much rain out there I can’t blame race control. I think it’s Crofty, not 100% sure, but the comments like “that car should have a driver in it going around the circuit right about now” are a bit much for me. Anyone else feel the same or am I just overreacting?
