My New Resume

While calculating my estimated salary on momsalarywizard.com, I learned that, in theory, I could be earning $189,339 annually. I say, "Show me the money!!!" The salaries are estimated based on the hourly wages of specific job positions if we were to be employed in that field. Because we actually work in several fields of expertise each day, our salaries should be quite high. The list wasn't long enough which means the potential earning is awe-inspiring. It was fun to guesstimate hours worked, but even more fun to run with that and think about all of the experience I will have to list on a future resume. Here are just some of the positions I now have experience in...

nutritionist, sports psychologist, spiritual advisor, plumber, book keeper, preschool teacher, elementary school teacher, nurse, psychologist, mediator, caterer, party planner, interior designer, safety consultant, librarian, maid, law enforcement officer, logistics analyst, bed and breakfast owner, costume designer, groundskeeper, dental hygienist, hair stylist, waste management worker, hazardous materials handler, set designer, project development expert, event planner, pharmacy technician, transportation manager, day care staff worker, writing instructor, facilities manager, baker, executive director, educational tutor, CEO Peterson Inc., professional organizer, time management expert, project manager, executive producer, financial advisor, investment banker, personal chef, short-order cook, activities director, spy, entertainment director, tour guide, trouble shooting analyst, systems analyst...

This list has been really fun to make, and I could go on. I think all moms are super heros. Can that go on a resume??

I love it. It would really help with the Mosher bottom line if the money were real! :) I think all moms who are contemplating going back to the workforce after raising children to a certain age should look at that list and feel confident going into any interview. Sheesh. We could run the whole company! Moms are awesome.
