Mike works on Wall St with Short Term Bonds and Munis. Normal business hours - but an almost 2 hr commute each way so when I see him at night, he's usually exhausted.

FH is an editor. He used to work nights which I hated because when I was coming home from work, he was going in. He is now working days and is editing hockey commercials! (His passion is hockey!) Now that it is the off season, he is editing any show/commercial the company has extra work for.

Re: What kinda of work

My FH is an IT director & Shipping Mgr for a jewelry company. His hours aren't to bad - he gets to work by 8:30-9 and leaves by 7. The only bad thing is when the computer system goes down and e-mail isn't working - he is the first person who gets the phone call even if it is a Saturday or Sunday afternoon....

FH is a Network Engineer (IT) for Limited Brands (company that owns Victorias Secret, Express,ect). Usually it's normal biz hours but he is in charge of all of the international networks and has conf calls with Italy, London, Hong Kong at all crazy hours of the night. When he works on projects his hours can be very long...like right now. BUT we both travel a lot for work and try to meet up when we can in cool cities.

Bonds broker in Manhattan. He leaves at 5:15am and gets home around 6:15. His hours stink! But he is going back to school after the wedding for his masters. Maybe then he will get a job with reg hours?

Re: What kinda of work

FH works at a micro electronics company and works 9-5 weekdays. He DJs on the weekend though and that can be anytime and anywhere.

In December I am reapplying for a flight attendant job, which could mean I would be away for days at a time. I'm hoping my job doesn't cause problems.
