Thanks ladies!
70 hrs is what the fed gov allows semi drivers per week, so is standard for anyone in that profession. As long as Greg wants to drive, that's what he's signing up for.

The position I applied for today is with a state program under a federal one. I'd be working in a county social services office with their nutrition education program for WIC, food stamps, elderly and disabled food programs helping them to get the best nutrition on their limited budgets. Being a state program, there are 20 different programs of medical insurance offered. The hourly pay is very similar to what I now get, but it's 24 rather than 40 hours per week.

Hubby called a bit ago, so I tossed the idea out for him to consider... his immediate reaction was that whatever I switch to, our main concern needs to be insurance. So he's not dismissing it right away.

I probably won't even get called on the job, but it's worth a try. I just don't want to feel like I'm not pulling my weight. I've homeschooled the kids, worked at various jobs and supported the whole family for a couple of years while hubby was a stay at home dad. I know I've done my share, but it's hard not to not feel I have to keep pushing even though I'd love to not. LOL
