Work-Life Balance: A Public Employee's Perspective

**That's a Real Point in Favor of a Working Mother**

And this is very well-paid. My schedule is much more flexible than in some of the larger accounting firms.

**I'm a Public Employee and Work for the Board**

I'm in a department with eight others. Our job is to attract investment to the area. I love the teamwork.

**This is the Most Stimulating Work I've Ever Had**

In addition, my work is very secure. I'm happier in my job than most of the people I know.

**When I'm Not at Work, I Spend All My Time with My Children**

Allow me to say a few words about myself. I was born in the United States and now work on the West Coast.

**I Love to Go Back to My Hometown Whenever I Can**

I really miss my family. I grew up in the North of England, but my family moved to the South when I was a teenager.

**I Came to Live in Salamanca 12 Years Ago**

And I have lived here ever since. I work for a chain of furniture stores and travel all over the world for my work.

**I Am Not Good at Organizing My Time**

And sometimes I find it difficult to decide on my priorities. Some of my colleagues talk to me when they have problems. I like to help if I can.

**I Am on Good Terms with My Colleagues**

And I like to work with my team. We go out together a lot to eat or have a drink after work. We have a great time.
