[quote=Anonymous]Men prefer that you identify the particular issue rather than the situation. Rather than asking him how the job hunt is going (which is the loaded question), have a discussion with him about his job characteristics. Tell him that while you understand that he has been working hard, that his choice to work evening and weekends is really hard on you. Explain that you understand that the tips are better at nights and weekends, but the schedule is very hard and he needs to find alternatives that allow him to be home supporting you and the family at least some of the evenings or weekends. If he can find a decent bartending job that gives you back some of that time, that's fine or he needs to find an alternative day job. His choice, but you need him home some evenings and some part of the weekend to help with the household and children. [/quote]
