"I just don't want to work"

Hi all... I'm new to the board and I am curious.
I am in my mid twenties, unmarried, no children. I work in an extremely competitive field with many other women my age. Many of us are making six figures and the job is very stressful. We all have a great work ethic, but sometimes when the stress gets really bad, I'll often hear the girls (never the guys) saying things like "Arrgghh... I'm so sick of work. I just want to marry a rich man, have kids, stay home and NOT WORK."....... I was raised by two working parents (two very loving, caring hardworking parents). My mother was very successful in her career, and I feel that when I get married, I will (like my mom) continue to work and raise children at the same time (my mom was definitely "super mom" ---she did it all and was great!)...... My main question: many of the women in my work stay in the position for about 5-7 years and then leave.....the funny thing is...

I'm not sure Arnold can be blamed for this. This is a county issue. I agree, the counties should be paying more attention to brush clearing. As for "preventing" fires.... I think that's the problem. Fires should not be prevented, they are natural. They should have more controlled burns and wilderness management so when we *do* have a fire, it doesn't get out of control like it does.
That said... I understand why some may fear the things that happen here. Personally, I fear hurricanes and tornadoes much much more. I think it may be a case of fearing what one does not know. Heat waves? No biggie. I hate snow though... ROFL.
And trusting the news is not a good idea. Half of CA doesn't get earthquakes, for the most part. As far as I know, my area has never been threatened by a wild fire.
where do you hear these comments?
