Can someone make a decision for me? I haev a five year old and a one year old. I'm too tired and frazzled to think straight. I have a job that can sometimes make me feel ill with stress. I stick with it because a)its part time and close to home b) its in a hard-won field that I've worked in for years and c) Other jobs are scarce.
But its making me ill. The bosses are not great, the culture is tough, and after I pay for childcare I bring home a pittance. Should I soldier on, or just stop?
