However, I am bone tired, all the time and I think it's takes a toll on so much of your life, your marriage, your sanity. <BR/>I wish you luck with deciding and if you find a way to balance it all, doing what you love, please let me know. <BR/><BR/>*hugs*Kirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17894442143508446312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29669025.post-68238022167948268732008-11-13T08:48:00.000-05:002008-11-13T08:48:00.000-05:00Dh & I also spend 2-3 hours commuting every da...Dh & I also spend 2-3 hours commuting every day (door to door). Fortunately, most of ours is on a train. Still, it does take up a big chunk of your time & energy during the day. Is there any way you could set up a home office & work from there a couple of days a week?

Seriously....I think salary dot com is a lot of BS. Seriously. I think they inflate all salaries so that people like what they see and continue to go there. So they can make money from selling ads based their website's traffic.

I've been there...I did that long commute for 2 years and finally I just couldn't do it anymore and found a new job.
