Electrician and have been for 10 years. Worked part time when pregnant and took about 6 months maternity leave, am now working part time again from home on a very casual basis at the moment, am aiming to do 10+ hours a week so am more of a SAHM than anything else at the moment. I would gladly just be a SAHM but that little bit of extra cash helps to buy luxuries and pay for my petrol, coffee with friends etc and allows us to save a little too.
I also have a jewellery business and my long term goal is to be self employed doing that, so that is a complete change from being a sparky.]]> Tue, 22 Jan 2008 15:48:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13816&PID=283522&title=jobs#283522 <![CDATA[JOBS : At the moment its student and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13816&PID=283483&title=jobs#283483 Author: mummy_becks
