I work 4 days a week, have 2 DC in nursery and just cover my costs by going to work. I enjoy working (not necessarily my job though) and want to be financially independent but I don't feel I'm going anywhere- I haven't been promoted for years and am wondering if I might aswell give up. I just don't think I'm cut out for a senior role so if I'm never going to earn megabucks or be really successful, is there any point?
