From what I've heard, being a community manager is generally stressful. Anyone ever had marital issues just from having this job? I want a career switch, and I'm leaning toward CM. However, I'm also newly married, and I don't want my husband to think he married a workaholic.

Yes, it really is. But I think it also depends on the business or the company. Other companies are pretty chill to be honest.

I'm not yet married. I can only tell you about my colleague's experiences. The first few months of their married life were rocky. But her hubby nevertheless supported her.

What you've heard is true. My partner is very supportive and understanding. Luckily, we haven't had any issues because of my work.

That's true. Luckily, we never had any issues because of my job. My partner's job is pretty stressful too that's why he understands my situation better than anyone else.

I'm sure he'll understand you. What's his job? Did he say something about your work?

You need to talk this out. You will never know what he feels unless you discuss it with him. Don't worry too much, OP.

This is one of my favorite couples from the show. While Steven was quite immature during the show, it seemed like he was just young and wanted to be a good dad. They've been together as a family for a while now, he has taken up yoga to manage his temper issues, she has a career on the side as a photographer and they seem happy. I hope their social media is a true representation of their lives and I hope they are truly happy together with their little son 😊

I work at a small, 3 lawyer firm. One of the lawyers is not barred in the state we practice.

Is this normal? I am not provided time to review the materials before I file them so I end up working longer days because I am nervous to file something using my name and bar number.
