[quote=Anonymous]"Yep, as a PP said, your choices. I would rather have slightly less material wealth than work a 50 hour week with a commute. I'm perfectly happy with my 35-40 hours (picked an employer who doesn't watch my clock, is happy to see me leave when the work is done). Also, there are plenty of people with the same essential responsibilities as me who ARE putting in 50+ hour weeks. That's straight up time management and job suitability. I won't go chasing a new job that I can't perform efficiently, and I won't bitch about how "busy" I am. Have the overwhelmed PPs considered taking a voluntary demotion to a job they can handle in a reasonable amount of time? I know a few people who have done that, and are much happier. " It wouldn't be "slightly less" material wealth - I make half of our income. 50 hours a week IS reasonable for both a full time job and a commute. I wasn't bitching about it. I used to work 60 to 80 hours a week, not including commute.[/quote]
