I did this. Thought I was being a team player and a good employee. The issue is, when you are good at your job and/or very hard working (especially if other members of you team can't be or aren't), managers start relying on you more heavily and adding significantly to your workload.

At some point it goes from, "Well, I'm busing my arse now, because the hard work will pay off" to you being taken advantage of and not being compensated for all of the additional hours at the office and at home you're working.

I quit a job cold a few years ago because it became so stressful that I would rather risk getting fired for calling in sick regularly than show up. It was absolutely miserable with no hope of adding team members, or dividing work with other branches/areas to assist me with what was objectively an impossible workload. Took 3 months off with no job prospects (although I was confident in me resume and contacts that I would find something. I also had 2 years of expenses covered if I needed it). It was the best 3 months of my life.

That being said, to the OP, the grind wasn't so bad in my 20's and 30's, but now that I'm in my 40's, I'd rather just be financially secure (both present and future) and work a job that I can leave at the office and doesn't cause me to drink every day.

If you are happy with your routine, find an employers that will provide a work schedule that will best allow you to stick with your routine. If you are looking to climb a company ladder and compete for top management positions, then yeah, you'll have to suck it up and make sacrifices.

Never forget, you're interviewing these employers as much as they are interviewing you. You do what is going to make YOU and YOUR FAMILY happiest with an appropriate consideration for financial status weighed however you feel it needs to be weighed.

Your entire post reads like a woman. Work/life balance is a phrase that women use. I am a woman and I don't use it because I work for a company that takes care of its employees. You are whining about your workout schedule. Shut up and get to work.

This is an objectively bad take.

If YOU like working in an office, there's nothing wrong with that. It's all about what you prefer.

But people with different lifestyles may prefer working from home if it's available as it affords more flexibility for their life situation.

If anything you sound like a manger who hates work from home because you don't trust your employees. Whether that be because you're bad at hiring or you're a controlling micro-manager, I don't know.

If your employees/teammates are meeting/exceeding budgets and timelines, I'm not sure why what 4 walls and desk you work at matter.

Stats are consistent over the last 3 years.

Everyone thought Chase Young was washed and he's been pretty solid. Maybe Reese will be another player that plays rejuvenated ball at a new team.

Damn....what did he do to you?

Ever since that 2024 aTm game where he threw the game in the 2nd half and was complete arse the remainder of the season, I've disliked him. He was either wildly unprepared or was doing it intentionally (it looked THAT bad).

I'll take back a bit of what I said about him this year because I didn't know about the injury, but I never cared for him since the latter half of 2024.

Stop being a pussy.

It's literally only a couple of rounds on day 3 of the NFL draft.

International fans are becoming increasingly passionate about the league and it's a good thing.

If this works you up, then you need to re-evaluate your life.

As if 100k drunk arse Cajuns don't do this every Saturday at LSU games :lol:

I hate Nuss more than anyone, but he was a potential number #1 QB prospect before his injury last year.

Taking a flyer on him wouldn't be the end of the world.

Or maybe we just love football and hate what the nfl has become?

You hate the NFL because they are allowing international fans to announce picks for 1 round on day 3 of the NFL draft in April?

Free country I guess.

I'd personally love to go at least once just to experience it.
