I find myself turning 36 right around the corner and re-entering the workforce after 2 years of being my own boss, boy is it hard. I have been working from home this past year and the year before that owned my own tanning salon and for the past 8 yrs worked from home for a major corp. Boy is the market tough. Yes I have a college degree but that was a few years ago and having 2 small children I do not want or can I afford to put them in child care so I am looking for an evening job. There is not much out there. I have plenty of experience in a wide range of areas, but I have a feeling that many employers will think I am over qualified and not be given a chance. What I want to employers to think about is yes we have experience, education, but you know what we all have to start some where and if it is at the bottom a lot of us will take it. We do realize we have to learn the positions and we are not going to always be at the bottom we can work our way up. So, please do not descriminate against us. Give us a chance.
