Do you ever think about work when you go home at night? I'll often get some inspired thought in the shower or be trying to work some problem out in my head while watching a show. Wondering if anyone else is like me having a hard time keeping work at your desk.

I just screamed at my dad and walked out of our home.

This morning I was trying to get feedback from him on a business idea and his response was: Maybe you should focus on your career since you didn’t get a job in finance and had to settle for consulting, and you work at Deloitte... it’s a sweatshop. They didn’t even give you a fast track promotion did they?
