[QUOTE="revjames, post: 374613, member: 5256"] I worked for ECC quarries in the SW in the 80's. Worked 6-6 most days 7-4 sat and 7-12 sunday. So sunday afternoons I found out I had 2 young boys, one newborn and one about 18 months. Never saw them during the week as they were in bed by the time I got home. However, someone had to put a roof over their heads and in those days you didnt get your crap wages topped up just because you had kids so you had to work all hours to make ends meet! After a while we relocated back to North wales and worked for DNO on 37 hrs a week. Money was less but mortgage was less too so all was well and I saw more of the family. Life is a balancing act at times but perspective is needed [/QUOTE]
