[quote=Anonymous]I work 70 hours a week. As part of that, I have an arrangement with my employers where I make 3 square meals for the kids (and enough dinner for the whole family) and I eat with them. This way I don't have to get up a d make breakfast for myself, then go to work where I make breakfast/lunch/dinner for the kids, then drive home and make my own dinner and do all my dishes. Instead, my time off is empty to run an errand or watch a tv show or meet someone for late coffee, which is hugely helpful to me in having some semblance of a life, and my employers walk in to find dinner on the table 5 nights per week. I also work out at work to some extent--either doing yoga during naptimes or going on long walk with kids in tow. My employers know that this is an important part of avoiding burnout and we have a mutually respectful and flexible relationship.[/quote]
