  • How did you start discussing your family matters (even your wife's income) with your boss? It is so weird! Stop talking about your wife and children... at your workplace. Learn to draw boundaries. Don't think all workmates love to see us happy in our families. If your next pay rise delays, know that someone thinks you already have more than back home courtesy of your wife. more

  • what does your contract says? Does it include whatever your manager says? of not then tell him about it, that doesn't mean you don't follow the... company's rules or policy. Just do what the contract you sign says.  more

  • That is unreasonable demand if it is a regular feature. Try to convince them. Otherwise look for alternative job suitable to your profile ( mention... your requirements) and then only quit .  more

  • None, work is work, remember the manager also take instructions from the above just give three days on-site a chance. You've been working 5 days... on-site before you started working at home. Been there done that, and there wasn't a problem. Keep up the good work.  more

  • None of the options. I will give the 3 days onsite work a trial.

  • Yes I agree with comments about spending time with family. I almost hit a balance in life. MY kids where taught that work give the family money to do... what we want. I agree no one ever said " I wish I had spent less time with a loved ones" Good Luck figuring it out with balance in life. But think hard and don't let your ego drive the bus is only thing I suggest.  more

  • I haven't experienced this personally, but here are my thoughts.

    I think it’s easy to look at what friends or colleagues are earning and feel like... you’ve fallen behind, but career success isn’t measured by salary alone. You made that decision because having more time with your family was important to you, and there’s real value in the time and experiences you gained over those two years.

    That doesn’t mean you have to stay at the lower salary forever. If you’re ready for more professional or financial growth now, you can start exploring opportunities that provide it without necessarily giving up the balance you worked to create.

    Sometimes a career decision isn’t about falling behind—it’s about choosing what matters most during a particular season of your life.

  • This is one of those decisions where I don’t think the answer has to be simply the dream job or the relationship.
    Traveling 2–3 weeks every month is... a significant lifestyle change, and even when a partner wants to be supportive, the reality of spending that much time apart can be difficult.

    Before accepting, I’d have a very open conversation about what the travel would actually look like, how both of you feel about it, and whether there are ways to make it more manageable. I’d also find out whether the employer offers any flexibility with the travel schedule.

    A dream job can be an incredible opportunity, but the people we share our success with matter too.

    The best career opportunity is one that moves your professional life forward without unnecessarily sacrificing what matters most in your personal life.

  • This happened to me and my husband when we first got married. It was so stressful. But we adjusted. But we protected weekends and maintained routines... with communication to make it easier. But I won't lie. It's tough. I travel a lot for my work. It bothers me more than it does my husband. But I found that it always works out. more

  • A 40% raise is certainly significant, but I think it’s important to look beyond the salary and consider the total cost of the opportunity. Two hours... of commuting every day could easily add up to 10 hours a week—time that you currently have for family, personal interests, or simply enjoying life.

    I’d compare not only the additional income, but also commuting expenses, benefits, career growth, work environment, and how much you personally value the flexibility you have now. Sometimes a higher salary represents a genuine step forward; other times, once you factor in the time and lifestyle changes, the increase isn’t quite as large as it initially appears.

    Compensation matters, but your time has value too—and unlike money, you can’t earn more of it.

  • Money is not everything. I commuted 3 hours daily for 10 years. I had 2 hip replacements. Stay remote

  • Hey Guys: Ease up. He is already feeling bad. Shaming him is not helping him. Instead, give him advice on how to make it right. My suggestion is to... fess up and apologise. more

  • We all need greener pastures. So please let go off your fellow worker.

  • I don't think it is dishonest. It is the employer's responsibility to check into such matters.

  • AND I'm so sorry about your colleague and I think it's your fault in the first place you should not recommend your colleague for the job you already... know he or her been fired and I don't blame your colleague but I blame you because you are not honest to your Boss and you make your colleague fill bad. more

  • I used to be a supervisor for the state of Texas. I believe it's illegal to ask such questions. Do they ask the men similar questions? It could be... perceived as sexual discrimination. more

  • I don’t think you should have to “play along” with a question that has nothing to do with your qualifications or ability to perform the job. An... interview should focus on your experience, skills, availability, and what you can contribute to the organization.

    While not getting the position is disappointing, the question may have also given you valuable insight into the company’s culture. Sometimes an interview isn’t just about whether they want to hire you—it’s also about deciding whether you want to work for them.

    In 1999 I was offered my dream job but I would have to move from California to Florida. My mother was sick at the time. She told me to take the job... which meant I would have to move of course. I took the job and moved. My mother was so proud of me, and what i was doing. I was making more money so I could send back some of it to her to cover her bills. Did it suck to leave my sick mother, yes but seeing how proud she was that I finally made it was priceless. Still doing the job 26 years later.  more

  • That’s a difficult decision because there may not be a perfect answer.
    I’d look beyond just the job itself and consider how much my parents currently... depend on me, whether other family or support systems are available, and whether the opportunity could provide enough flexibility to remain involved in their lives.

    Dream opportunities can be rare, but time with the people we love is something we can’t get back either.
    I’d try to find a solution that allows me to pursue the opportunity without completely sacrificing one for the other. Sometimes the best decision isn’t choosing between family and career—it’s figuring out whether there’s a way to honor both.

  • I wouldn’t advise you taking that gamble with your child and mortgage at hand unless you’ve gotten other ways of survival.

  • You regularly did it knowing it was illegal to do it, in as much as others also do it. Are you that stupid to want to go down with everyone else when... you failed to keep your end of the situation? more

  • You said got caught key word so it’s clear you knew not to do said things , you can’t do what you see everyone else doing and then play victim when... caught move on and learn lesson and be more mindful on next job  more

  • If the relationship is purely something your coworker told you in confidence, and you have no evidence of favoritism, coercion, retaliation, or policy... violations, many people would choose not to insert themselves into a private relationship. more

  • Bounce, just leave without burning any bridges, everyone will eventually make peace with it.

  • That’s a tough one. I believe keeping your word matters, but I also think you have to make career decisions based on the entire opportunity—not just... the paycheck.
    Compensation, growth potential, stability, culture, work-life balance, and long-term goals all deserve consideration.
    If the new opportunity is clearly the better move, I’d have an honest conversation with my current employer and handle the departure professionally.
    Loyalty is important, but ultimately, you have to take responsibility for your own career path.

  • If your partner is complaining, it means it’s real. You can keep the job while doing your best to balance it with the relationship. You know best how.

  • Insecure women prefer control over men. Just have a boundary with your coworker but please keep the job. The marriage lasts as long as you provide,... stop working you will lose your wife  more

  • I agree with Bello Ibrahim Yusuf: ask your wife specifically what is making her uncomfortable. Requesting a transfer is an option, but trust me, no... job change will make an insecure partner feel secure.

    Women make up a huge portion of today's workforce, and working in diverse teams is standard practice. Quitting won't solve anything—you'll end up working with women at your next job, too. Unless she expects you to stay home while she works (and she avoids male coworkers herself), running from the situation isn't realistic. There is Counciling
