I have to decide between a pukka professional job 3 full days a week, or something more flexible in the academic arena. Really torn. I feel that if I go down the academic route that's it - I'll never get back on to the same professional track (in the London legal world) - BUT the flexibility and all holidays off would be wonderful. Having to ask myself some tough questions about how ambitious I am, where I see myself in 10 years etc. I have 3 boys - all very young (DS3 is 5 months old, DS2 is 2 and DS1 is 4).
Money, status, professional standing, vs. flexibility, lots of time off.
