Hello,

Just a rant,feel free to add your thoughts.
I am in middle management role,and work expectations, I have to start my day at 6:30 AM and close by 12 AM or more sometimes to manage both home and work
I have outsourced domestic workload to helpers.
Due to my age,not able to spend 18
hrs.My kid academic performance also declined recently ,which is bothering me.
I built my career, starting at 2 LPA and now at 75 LPA and in decent state financially
I am thinking of quitting and manage home health.

Sometimes we think that sonce we are paid a lot we owe our time to them. How about you start 1 hr late and log off 1 hour early? Take frequent breaks and focus completely on your family then. Strictly no weekends. Else take comp off within the week and have a long weekend.

You can slow down slightly and see the reaction and impact. If not then switch and see there as well. Set new boundaries. If nothing feels to be working then you can quit.

Why do you have to jump yo quitting without trying out all options.

75 LPA? Wow. I didn't know India paid that high. Which company? And how many years of experience? However, work life balance is important and you should take a break when it burns you out

If you don’t want to quit make strict boundaries. Or if it’s too much then you can always quit and be with family, running a family is also a big job. Btw how did you build up your profile?

Yeah, It is completely Okayy to take break and you deserve it. Though you might feel like you are giving up and feel lost. It's not that way. Take break, relax, feel yourself. Then you can rejoin or do something else that you like once you are ready.

You are lying..75 lpa is not possible

Could be on the cost of no work life balance

💳Credit card help💳 Starting a new job in two weeks. The new company does not give a corporate card, so I get to pick my own. If things were normal and I was traveling / spending as usual, getting the CSR or AMEX platinum would make sense. But with things the way they are, what should I do? Work related expenses will be minimal, but Im moving/furnishing an apartment so personal spend will be decent. TIA!
