just an entirely personal post. i hate it when childless people at work boast to me about how hard they are because they worked till 3 am and all weekend. they are sad, sad, sad and never even have time to spend all the extra money they earn and are disorganised because if they planned properly and were realistic they would never have agreed to do the extra work in the first place. i really love my nice colleagues with children who get together with me and agree that we don't want to work all the time, that working every evening after the children are in bed is the way to an early grave, who feel like a failure if we work at the weekend, and tell each other than love is more important than earning extra money. feel better now.
