You’re out of home 10 at best (from 8 to 18). Assuming you sleep a regular amount of hours (8h), that leaves you 6h/day for yourself and your family. That’s not enough in my opinion. Luckily for me, covid happened and now I work remotely (so I regained the commute hours and honestly, I work 6 focused hours instead of 8h since that was the amount of hours I was working at the office anyway without interruption). In this setup you could regain up to 4h of the day for you/family, so 10h in total.
Find a remote job.
- VoodooJuJu 3y agoMost people cannot have a remote job. What should those people do to be "present"?
- stocknoob 3y agoThe people who know about and post to HN can get remote jobs.
- muffinman26 3y agoMost actual meaningful jobs can't be remote. There are no remote firefighters or plumbers and very few remote doctors or nurses. My experience with remote jobs is they leave you less present both at work and at home. I float through life in haze, completely detached from reality. Separate spaces and a commute creates a natural transition period so that I can be present at both.
- gwnywg 3y agoI think the commenter you replied to meant there is high probability there are not that many plumbers visiting HN (I don't count some SW devs who call themselves plumbers :) )
