>>82624771Work-Life Balance is not unique
>>82624771nice humblebrag, loser.
>>82624771>wifeFuck off normie nigger
>>82624771Keeping your source of pussy happy matters more than winning in the capitalism rat race. Refocus.
>>82624785Yea I really feel great as I spend all Friday cleaning the house without help. That's literally how I spend 20% of the "work week." And I'm basically expected to be home and help with the kids by noon after I teach. >>82624787I don't really work for a bossman. I can do whatever I want. And I'd rather spend some of my life writing about shit that interests me rather than waiting until I'm in my 50s.
>>82624771Your wife is a nagging fuck and you should make her get a Job. Fouds only learn via pain. Lose the Job or get demoted or pay cut because you haven't been doing the work then when you have less money tell her its because she hasn't been letting you do your work
>>82624771Women in the work place was a mistake. I'd just set at schedule, say 9 till 5, and tell her you're expected in the office at that time.
>>82624865I did that for a month when I was trying to get a paper done and man, you'd have thought I was an absent father/husband the way she treated me. So much passive aggression and her sarcastically saying shit like "So much for flexibility." I think she's mad because we moved around a lot chasing opportunities for me to get this job and now she wants me to prove that it's been worth it for her. >>82624832She's so defeatist that whenever discussions about her getting a job comes up, she says shit like "I've been not working for four years. Who will hire me?" As if SAHMs are never ever to restart a career.
>>82624771>no wife>no jobno problems
>>82624972I'm perfectly fine with my job. Six figures to teach a couple classes and do whatever I want is a good deal to me. And no boss. Yea there's a dean but it's not the same relationship.
>>82624771you guys will complain about literally everything these days holy shit. count your blessings faggot
>>82625007I basically want to kill myself daily so whatever. Grass isn't always greener.
>>82624771She sounds ungrateful
>>82624771Just hire a BBC. Then you'll have the time to focus and make tenure.
