Great question…. I don’t keep up with house work. But that is fine because I don’t stress the mess! I made it clear to my husband from day one that my efforts In keeping the house clean and laundry done will match his efforts. If he doesn’t clean and help out, I don’t clean. I do just enough to keep cps away but if he doesn’t help with laundry his doesn’t get done, if he doesn’t help with cooking and doing dishes he has to find his own dinner, if he does not help vacuum or clean the floors, then we’re tripping over garbage. After a few years and fights he finally caught on and does his share so I don’t have to keep up with everything on my own.

I am getting better at just living in the moment and enjoying my kids and family

Okay so I found this laundry service that will clean and fold my entire household's clothes, for $57!...So I don't think I'm going back lol. It's amazing, I'd gladly give up Netflix and Starbucks and all the luxuries for the one luxury of not having to do laundry again.

Should I negotiate without any competing offers?

Company: Walmart Tech Labs
Location: Hoboken
Base: 150k
Bonus: 24k (16%)
RSU: 25k / year for 3 years

Offered TC: 180k
YOE: 3

I initially thought TC was 199k, but it’s actually 180k. Should I say something like “I was expecting 220. Is there anything you can do like a sign on bonus/raise base a bit to help get to 220?” To see if they can bump it up a bit?

I just don’t want to negotiate and get the offer rescinded.
