Boy, I feel unimpressive
I started but didn't finish college, and have mostly worked in clerical positions. Well, apart from the last nine years, when I stayed home with my kids. I'm back in the workforce now, since just before my husband lost *his* job. I was a secretary before my son was born, and I thought I'd go back to that, but with one thing and another I remembered the courses I'd had in accounting, and now I'm in accounts receivable. It's kind of tedious, but I like tedious
so it suits me just fine. Nice people to work with *and* I can wear jeans every day.
Pretty soon, though, my husband and I will be buying a franchise & running our own business. As soon as we get the financing lined up. Kelley's just gotten a new job last week, and for some reason, the bank was reluctant to lend huge sums of money to unemployed people. Go figure. Once we've got a paystub in hand, we'll be able to go forward with it.
I'm really looking forward to it -- and only a little bit terrified
But with so many companies insisting on college degrees that we haven't got, owning our own seemed like the way to go.
