[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]dad here, lawyer at midsize firm. zero chance I am home in Vienna before 7:30pm. and a few times a month, or more, I have board meetings, business development, etc. When I was in biglaw it would have been impossible to get home before 9pm. So let me know, and if the answer is what I expect, how do you explain to your family?[/quote] No, we do not eat dinner with family during the week. BigLaw x2. We do not eat dinner as a family during the week except on very rare occasions. We tried family breakfast for awhile, but once the kids had to be at the bus stop at 7:30 a.m., that stopped working. There is nothing to "explain" to my family. [b]This is how it is. [/b][/quote] No. This is not "how it is." This is your choice, BigLaw x2 was not ust dumped on you. Not that you have to explain it if you don't feel that's necessary, but you are not a passive recipient of this life either.[/quote]
