Returning to work early for the right job?

I'm so torn!!!

Current employer not entertaining part time when due back in May. I found a job which will be demanding but is great pay and part time hours - also just down the road from me!

They are happy for me to do one day a week from Jan until March then on to three days.

Should I be chomping at the bit for this flexible work or will I regret the extra time I could have spent with my boy?

You'll still be spending six days a week with him - I'd go for it!

Absolutely go for it. A friend did similar twenty odd years ago and she is now the CEO of the company.

Definitely go for it!

I would go for it - sounds like a far better option in the long run.

Definitely go for it. You'll have less time with him now but more time with him in the long term.
