discussed his demanding job with the Attila Spouse today.

He said he realized it might be time to think about moving on to something else about a week ago when he was heading home at 9:30 at night and found himself hoping that his toddler son would be asleep when he got in—that way, he'd be able to get some more work done.

He pulled his car over to the side of the road, then, and figured out that the job had taken over and neatly inverted his values.

He started sending out gentle inquiries about possible jobs the next day to all his business contacts.

Take-home question: how many men have that moment of clarity? And how many men (and women) simply go, "yeah, I hope the kid's asleep; it'll sure make my life easier."
