How do you guys balance dual careers?
We moved up to Kansas for his job this past August, and I was super lucky and started my own job quickly after. His job hasn't worked out and his brother-in-law offered him a great job in San Antonio. We are both super excited about coming back to Texas and being with family. However, I don't know what to do about my job!
I don't love it, but I love working. I've contacted my company's office in San Antonio and they don't have a need for someone in my position until summer. So how do I explain a 3 month job in an application and cover letter? I don't want to appear flaky.
For those that balance two professional careers... do you both have office jobs? Do you own your own business? Do you or your partner sacrifice a traditional career for flexibility? I've been thinking of creating my own business just so I can control my time, hours and income, but it's a huge commitment and high risk. Any ideas on how to successfully balance two careers or funny stories would be appreciated.
TL;DR I get to come back to Texas!
