I've been at my job for about 18 months and was originally hired for PT. However, after the interview I was told the position is for FT. No biggie. I love my job and working FT has not been an issue. By the way, I work 3 12's a week and I'm a rotator.
Fast foward to now, I'm expecting and debating whether or not to return from maternity leave as a FT or PT employee.
I've made a list of pros' and cons but still haven't made a final decision.
Pros are:
-Not having to use daycare
-Spending more time with baby
Cons are:
- Less money to spluge due to reduction income
- boredom on my days off
- Fear of the "What ifs" What if my husband unexpectedly looses his job.
We just purchased a new home and have a baby on the way so going part time will require some sacrifices. I'm just not sure what to do.
Any advice ?
