If you’re obsessing over work-life balance, your problem isn’t the hours—it’s the job, says Bupa’s CEO. And some of the world’s most powerful people agree.
Lawyer? I don’t know what else could put up numbers like that
I used to pull 300 hr months from May to December stomping though the bush and digging holes. Tiring doesn’t even begin to describe my field seasons.
My off season was working on mines as a soil monitor, and those months were 220-250 hrs. A lot easier work, but it takes its toll on you too.
Did that for 10 years. My hips and lower back were completely toast.
Now I work 37.5 a week at a desk. Made in the shade, baby.
Finally rehabbed my injuries as well.
Life is good.
Any one who says work life balance is a myth or for the weak can come get eaten by black flies with me. That’s if I don’t brain them with my shovel first.
