• Please look for another job quietly and leave. As bosses we should respect family times espcially after working hours. God will make a way for you.

  • Go ahead, support the boss. Polish your chains and punish those who object to them by breaking them.

  • Sit with him and take decision together consider the negative side and positive side ,don't be selfish because you are one

  • I think both careers should matter in a marriage. Since you've supported his career for years and now have an opportunity of your own, I believe you... both deserve a chance to discuss a solution that respects each person's goals. Have you considered exploring opportunities in the new location or remote work before making a final decision? I hope you find a solution that works for both of you. ❤️ more

  • Not necessarily.. such an over-used & tiring cliché.......then your reply could be considered a 3rd world attitude, or envy..all 3 of those... assumptions are unpleasant..yes??
    You don't know from where his family came, how they struggled to improve their lives (perhaps they are immigrants who moved to America to find a better life),
    Perhaps they live in unpleasant conditions. One doesn't always know the culture & expectations thereof. Be kind. It could one day be you, or a loved one.

  • People don’t only do jobs; they do work! I can imagine how emotionally exhausting it must be to carry the family’s financial responsibility alone.... While your husband continues searching for suitable employment, he can explore temporary income opportunities, take on more household responsibilities, or consider starting a business.

    My advice is to consider accepting the promotion if the financial benefits justify the additional demands, while working together to build a family business using your savings wisely. This could eventually create an alternative income stream and give you more time to focus on your family.

    Remember, employment is not always permanent. Let this experience be an opportunity to plan for greater financial independence. You are partners, and the responsibility should not rest on your shoulders alone. Protect your emotional well-being while working together toward a more secure future.

  • what kind of work does your husband do? we're in a massive hiring cycle.

  • No. Sounds like the boss is playing the old divide and conquer game. The only game you should be playing is doing your job and looking for... opportunities to move up the food chain! more

  • You might ask your boss what is more important to him/her: are you more impressed is I return a call @ 7pm or if my performance is exceeding... expectations? more

  • By saying you are at capacity but as soon as you're able to finish up when you can take on another project with sufficient assistance so that... everything gets done one time and properly it's not no it's you are at capacity because once you've done all that you can do you can't take on more because that becomes a bigger problem projects don't get done or they don't get done on time remind the manager that you want to continue doing excellent work but you can't if you take on more work then you can produce with excellence.  more

  • Don't answer. Don't apologize.
    Tell him you're not available outside of regular office hours, it's precious time with your family..and resting to... ensure you are rested so you can deliver good work during the day for him.
    The right tone and self-confidence will be enough.

  • Be strict with your decisions. So far your intervention can wait till the next morning. Urgency in a career to me, refers to when a client life is... endangered. Anything aside that can wait. So you have to explain things to your manager concerning the fact that you are a family person, boundaries between family and work has to be set. And no one will acknowledged it if not set by you. more

  • Is the next employer giving you Chance to allow you go hand over

  • It right to feel that way because loyalty to your supervisor gives chance longer at your work place. This helps avoid conflicts. The best you can do... is walking in the light. Changing form one job station to the other is okay.
    You need to request for a break to smooth hand over to a next employee. Say farewell
    to your employer. If possible you will induct the next work on how things are done.

  • flavia Tumusiime head of National media Uganda came back to work with even a better role after 2 and a half years

  • Maybe you never liked your job? People after child change in so many ways. Maybe it is time to reinvent yourself, now with new parameters, and new... priorities. Personaly, I think changing of career (if you loose the pace with your profession during that two years) will be a step forward. It is just a tought... Be brave, and good luck! more

  • Don't listen to your colleagues,they are not yours. Whatever you can do for your child pls do,it's a seed.

  • What about her career and the realities and cost of having children + childcare? A conversation that perhaps should have been had before said children... come into play or even before committing to the relationship? This sounds like a "i didnt sign up for this" moment but unfortunately, neither did she . So to be fair, you find a middle ground and make it work. more

  • Please have a discussion on the realities and the cost of reducing your working hours. Work on a compromise.

  • This is your opportunity I'll say take it as for your family you can always work something out there is help out there for working family .

  • You wear those shoes and should know where they pinch. However, you could plan to achieve something for the first six months or one year. And you need... not tell your boss about this plan of yours. more

  • It is natural to keep chasing promotions after investing years of hard work, but remember that success is more than a job title. You don’t have to... abandon your ambitions; learn to pursue them without sacrificing your health, family, and peace of mind. Your wife may be reminding you to enjoy the life you have worked so hard to build. True success is not just reaching the top, but having the time and freedom to enjoy the view with those you love. more

  • If that’s what it takes to earn a senior position then that is not the company for you.

  • All good advice! Can’t add too much more! Only suggestion if you take job is set a time limit on how long you are willing to work this position, say... two years. Since this is a promotion what’s your next move up the food chain? Will this realistically get you where you want to be or help boost your career? If not why go through the pain? And by the way you do realize you have to pay taxes on that 35%? more

  • That's not a promotion dear. They just bought extra time from you worth 35%.

  • Of course you have feelings for your coworker, otherwise you would not be asking this. Run my friend run from one

  • I have a feeling that she doesn't text about projects only. but whatever it is, Break up very quickly! She can't even ask you to set boundaries, but... to quit the job rather??  more

  • The answer to this question is within both of you. Seeing your husband is it a man that can stay a day or a week without sex? When you see him is it... kind man that spend a week without wanting you? There’s lot factors to consider here. To compromise your life for him is a big decision and would both of you risk that? Therefore, it’s very hard to give you the answers you looking for because like you know both partners living separately will not last and one ☝️ will end up doing he/she wants. more

    Men pursue their purpose diligently, while women seek comfort and stability. It is important to reflect on your roots, childhood, experiences, and the... opportunities you may have missed. These factors shape who you are and drive you to work harder for your family. Men often focus on providing for their families through hard work, but women value quality time together. No amount of money can replace the significance of spending time with your loved ones. It is essential to find a balance between work and family life. One piece of advice is to explore additional sources of income and keep your wife engaged. Consider starting a side hustle or business together to reduce complaints and involve her in the decision-making process. This shared purpose will bring you closer as a couple and strengthen your bond. Remember, as a man, your purpose goes beyond just making money. more

  • So what i can say is that you should look forward to creating other sources of income.
    Also, your job should never affect any of your child's, or... spouse, or even your special day like birthdays, family holidays, achievements, at most, if you are unable to get any other source of income, just make it a non negotiable that you're present for these special activities, and also be present on the first day when your child's entering a new stage in life e.g college, or any other thing. If you are able to add random check-ups with these, you're 100% good to go. You can continue working your job. more

  • I personally experienced the same thing. Mother of 3, my partner of 8 years was hesitant because of the added responsibility for him. I asked him to... give me a year and then we would reevaluate. I took the job and it was the best career decision I could have made. I learned the difference between a supportive partner and one who did what he had to do because he had to do it. Life has naturally worked itself out how it was supposed to. So my best advice is take the opportunity, give it a year and reevaluate. Unfortunately, you may have to handle resentment like I did from my partner... but I would rather they expose their resentment because I went after my goals, versus resentment because I didn't try. Sometimes, the right decision for you isn't at someone else's best interests. Don't shrink yourself or your goals for anyone. The right ones will come along with you. Good luck and congratulations! more

  • Follow your mind dear. If a partner wants to go, he will find a good reason to go. No matter what you sacrifice in a marriage, a partner who wants to... complain will never appreciate. The only reason you will not regret is your children not the man. To my gender though. more
