I think I'm leaving the law completely

[Deleted]

I got a job offer yesterday.

Base is 70% more than my current draw plus commission.

Overall I'll probably make 100% more than I am now if planned commision is as promised.

But it has nothing to do with law, lawyers, paralegals etc.

They know my situation of 4 kids and I can work from home, office etc. Doesn't matter when I work, just have to get the job done.

I'm just waiting for formal offer letter.

Wow, congrats, that sounds awesome!

Why can't I find one of these "make bank, work wherever, whenever" jobs?

It's hooking, right?

It still isn't close to DH's salary, but it is better and if doesn't work I'll become a lady who lunches or a doc review cog.

As someone who left their prescribed, doctoral field for something "alternative" (i.e. left bench science to do fundraising FOR bench science), I can say that it will feel weird not being in that profession for a while. But the trade offs/ups offset that weird feeling in a hurry Congrats!

I started choking on my tea re: hooking.

Congrats!

My boss sent me home at noon just because and I thought I had it made.

He needs to get your new bosses address phone number immediately
