Kevin - could be a whole lot different, huh? Plenty out there to get someone hooked.

My significant other thinks it is cool. Certainly glad I'm not elsewhere on the vast interwebs or 'the darkweb'. She used to be a PM when in the business world. She's my go to for advice.

Kevin, It's not only your partner I was wondering too of few people don't they have a job to do cause I see them day & night here or may be this is their WP
Mainly mornings for me, then sproradic during the day; either during lunch or at the end of the day. Also from mobile on commute or couch. Just depends really.

My wife knows that my commitment to my profession is like a second marriage and doesn't begrudge me my "two-timing" her so long as it doesn't impact our shared commitments. Time spent here is investing in your career and building your brand - both critical these days.

Of course, once golf season starts, then she'll start complaining about my prolonged absences from home :-)

My boyfriend is a Project Manager as well. It is nice being able to "talk work" and understand each other. He is, of course, fully supportive of anything I do to advance my career.

This is a very big plus when both have the same career path, you will understand each other much better, I assume.

OMG, this is changing into partner counseling site:D I'm a wife and I hate when my husband seems to be addicted to his job. I believe everywhere needs to be a balance. This forum is great, very important for professional development, its good to be here. But its not worth of irritating partners such as wives:)
