Alex and Charlie are married.
Alex is self employed and works out of the house about 60 hours per week. Alex also has about 5-10 hours of paperwork they should do as well from home. When Alex gets home from work they’re tired and usually fall asleep early so to fit the paperwork in, gets up at 5:30am to do an hour or so before work.
Charlie is also self employed but only works 40 hours per week. Out of the house but can work from home too and does the majority of all household chores due to relative hours.
Any work done from home is done on laptops at dining room table for both.
They recently got a new puppy. Charlie has been working at home for the majority since having him.
Alex is now insisting that Charlie gets up at 5:30am too to sort the puppy out so they can get their work done.
Charlie is not happy with this as it is too early, Alex is naturally an early riser and Charlie is not. The puppy needs letting out and breakfast putting down. Charlie feels that because they can manage to work around the puppy during the day, Alex should be able to do so on a morning as well. Charlie says if there’s a big problem, like a big mess to clean up, then they would get up to help. Alex thinks they shouldn’t have to deal with puppy when trying to get work done.
Who is BU in this scenario? (Sorry to be vague as I'm trying to get unbiased opinions but will fill in blanks later.)
