As with working, every now and then, I pop-in the office and update the accounts. My working time is flexible, I can report as I wish, which is really good!!!

I'd like you to read this as it's quite interesting:

"The typical mother puts in a 92-hour work week, the company concluded, and works at least 10 jobs. In order of hours spent on them per week, these are:
housekeeper,
day-care center teacher,
cook,
computer operator,
laundry machine operator,
janitor,
facilities manager,
van driver,
chief executive officer and
psychologist.

By figuring out the median salaries for each position, and calculating the average number of hours worked at each, the firm came up with $138,095"...
