Indeed i would. With the woman working such crazy hours at her store, i would have more then enough time to put in 20 hours a week.
Over the last year ive done a bunch of work for an Oklahoma bank and clinic.

I like my rest at the end of the week so slapping on 20 more hours would probably run me into the ground.
On the other had I am considering taking some courses to upgrade my skills but that is not exactly the same thing.

Hmmm would I? Well seeing as though that is what I'm doing, I guess yes is the answer, but only because the money is right ;)

Definitely a trade-off between money and time with the family. At present, I'm somewhat strapped financially, so I would do it. In a couple of years, I'd probably decline unless I was doing all the work from home, and it wasn't more than a month or two at a time with at least a month break inbetween.
