Poll Ladies, Would You Rather Work Or Be A Housewife? (12 votes)
I guess I'm somewhere in between the two. I wouldn't call my occupation a "career" as there is no traditional ladder to climb, being stuck in an office 10 hours a day with a bunch of people you'd never want to be friends with if you weren't forced to be together? I would HATE that. Forced to kiss someone's ring to climb the career ladder? Screw that too. I make good money out of my occupation but I'm self employed, only myself to answer to and I get to meet lots of lovely people of all ages, occupations, both genders and I really love that. Sure, sometimes
So given the choice between lonely career woman or bored housewife, I'd take the housewife, and use my time to start a cottage industry or some other way to make money. But there would be no kids, I'm dead against having kids. So I guess I'd have a ton of time on my hands!
