[quote=Anonymous]I'm all for being a hard worker but I'm also all for family first. Other than the traveling, do they require you to do OT work after your work day ends. Like still connecting to work via phone, internet or whatever after 7pm? If it ends like 6pm like they say it does, than you can at least video chat with your kids while on travel but if you have to still work after hours and on weekends, forget it. How about what the kids think of your absence. I have heard parents sending their kids off to boarding school so they can focus on their career. I think you can do it and it you see it causing a friction in the family, I would have you or your spouse to scale back. The other concern is with the spouse relationship itself. You don't now if you don't try. If you think this is once in a lifetime offer, than do it. How bad will it look if you quit in 6 months? Will this look bad on your career. [/quote]
