How do you manage your relationship with you partner and work like?

@1989 lol

I recognize that I'm a husband first, then a dad and then a programmer.

@duckWit haven't you ever cancel your plans with your family for some work related issue?

@cha-m-ra yes. Being a husband first, to me, means open communication with my wife. I tell her about the issue and discuss it with her so we come up with a game plan together. I don't want to unilaterally dump everything on her and bail with regard to the kids and what not. This is putting her first.

Then when the emergency is over, I do my best to make up for the time lost as both a husband and a dad. How I choose to spend my free time speaks volumes.

I have no shortage of flaws, but I must be doing something right, it's our 11th anniversary this month.

...oh shit, it's our anniversary this month!

@1989 here you go

404 relationship not found, return to work

@duckWit good for you!

@notAnkur of course! 😋🤣

@Haxk20 neither do I!

Marry another engineer, like I did.
We both understand each other's workload and take our time cautiously.

Um.. I don't.. luckily husband doesn't have 8h deskjob either, so he understands if I have to work late and/or on weekends/vacation..
Not happy about it, but understands..
