    No problem. I’ve been doing long hours in the trades for a while. I’ve recently had this revelation myself and started looking for work that more around the 40h mark instead of the expectation of doing overtime. Still in the trades though since that’s what I know, but when it really comes down to it the only people who remember all the overtime you did will be your children.

      Very true. My dad worked a lot. It provided a great life for us. Not spoiled, but never without. Its a hard balance.
