Data and clerical work does not pay much, unless it is related to legal work etc. Sometimes the field matters more than the nature of work.

I never worked in the legal field, actually. I went \"off-track\" early and became a librarian and then a SAHM! I'm currently doing freelance editing when I can get projects. I only went into this a couple of years back so I'm not willing to try something new again so soon. I'll see how things go later in the year and decide whether to try for another PT job or whether I can get a reasonable flow of freelance projects that don't pay too little.

I think the problem with my age and qualifications is that potential employers probably don't take me seriously for PT work (usually more junior). And they are still not used to taking on PT employees for higher levels.

Timing too. Market is quite bad now.
