[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are in medicine and both work 50-60hrs/week. His schedule is less predictable and is on call more frequently than I am. The only way things have been possible for us is that fortunately both sets of grandparents live within 20 minutes of us and provide extensive help with our 2 kids. Most weeknight meals are at the grandparents house and kids usually sleep over 2-3 nights /week, etc. We do help with healthcare and vacation expenses for the entire family. We also get weekly cleaning and have offered that to the grandparents (they've so far declined). DH and I focus our attention on the kids all weekend, but the weekdays tend to fly by although we're usually able to have dinner and the hour after together. [/quote]

Op here - I would say that this job is fairly straight forward hours wise.  After the initial onboarding I would have a normal workweek of 40-45 hours and no travel or weekend work (or minimal).  But that is a lot more than the 30-35 hours I work now and I would definitely have to show up in the office more, especially in the beginning. [/quote]
