BC, I worked in the theatre in London and had a very different life from what I have now. After having the children, we moved out of London, DP works full-time and I have been lucky enough to find school hours work - the children are 11 and 8 years old.
Unfortunately, the job I'm doing is not at all well paid and my boss is not somebody I can respect. Most of the people I work with are part-time, with children, and are all women. Our boss is a woman, roughly my age but without children. As she has no children, she has no ties and is always out in the evenings and away at weekends. The job entails some weekend and evening work so those of us with ties to the area, are not exactly 'expected' to be available but are the only ones available to cover these events for which we get 'time off in lieu'. She's not that good at the job, either, and me and my colleagues, having worked in jobs with more responsibility than she has now, are always covering for her but get none of the credit.
Anyway, I think I can't work for anybody anymore - I think I'm unemployable. What can I do from home? Is there anything?
