You can have hobbies and fun even with children! Not as easy as without but definitely possible! For me the biggest sacrifice was giving up my peace of mind… I used to be relaxed and care free… now I constantly worry for the well-being of m

I understand that it’s hard to take care of children… but I still prefer to be exhausted after a day spent with my son than after a day at work!

A screen is just a way to display information… I haven’t owned a physical book since 2008 and yet I read 2 or 3 books a month (thx kindle). I got my own pc in 1990 when I was 5… I had a NES where a player the same 6 games for years (and som

I don’t know where your French data come from… but I live in the French Riviera and no one here works overtime… my company office is empty by 5h30 (and the boss is the first to leave). And all my friends in the region share the same experie

It’s not exactly great letting your child crying either… I am not convinced you are the better parent here.

To be honest I barely tolerate young people! I am in my late 30s and every time I interview someone in their mid 20 I wonder what happened to the education system… give me a 40yo or 50yo instead of 10 20yo any time!

I wish twitter was a French company… it would be hilarious to watch Elon clash with our labour’s laws! At my company a new manager (from the US) was severely scolded for sending an e-mail after working hours (it is prohibited to avoid being

I guess I am lucky… but I never had to “look for a job”. My fort job after graduation was the company itself that reached out while I was finishing my studies (and was not the only one… I was overwhelmed by offers). After that every time I

My son is 4th month old and I still have plants of time for doing things (in the first month from his birth I managed to read 3 books… and do plenty of other things). It’s 2 adults and one baby… not that hard!

Not true… if you are good at time management you can still do almost all the things you used to do. Especially with 2 parents and 1 kid!

To be fair I was not working late even before the birth of my son… life is to short to waste it on work (and I do love my job… still there are so many nice things to do in life that is a pity to focus only on work). I never considered prof
