I have a full time job as a familial manager. I also have a part time job as a ballroom dance instructor. While many days, I'd love to drop that first title and go all in as a dance teacher, I don't think my young offspring are too great at cooking and driving... yet.
Some other days, the draw of being a SAHM (Stay At Home Mom, not something dirty) is strong. There are several reasons I think I would excel when focused at this job:
- Increased Domestic Goddess Status. Let's not even mention how good I am at cracking eggs (the best, weird compliment I've gotten from a friend). But my Tupperware estimation skills are unmatched: I can eyeball any leftovers and correctly chose the perfect size container to exactly fit said leftovers.
- Larder Expansion. I have a garden and deep freezer. I can stockpile food like a conspiracy theorist with a d-day bunker. In other words, I can hosts parties at any time. With out of season produce.
- Life Goals. I could really buckle down and start watching soap operas and eating bon-bons like all good housewives do.
- Better Stats. I'm trying to raise my EOF. [Earned Offspring Fortitude] Currently, I have patience for 3.5 kids at a time. I think with a few more hours of mental preparation available a week, I could totally up that average to 4.2 kids.
- Continued Domination of Crafty Nonsense. In no time, I'd be sewing elaborate Halloween costumes (well, more elaborate ones?), yarn-bombing the foot bridge by my house (THE WHOLE THING), and making theme weeks for the WHOLE YEAR.
Do you think I'd get hired?
