I work with mine; we're both directors (commercial cleaning). He deals with 'operations', is very hands-on & gets to travel around, I'm stuck up in Lancashire doing the payroll & admin for around 200 regular staff a week...with all the attendant queries from housing benefit, Jobseekers, CSA etc bla bla
He went to one of our customers 4 weeks ago on an overnighter but while away, he got a call from another of our sites, our manager was taken seriously ill, he's been covering for him and running the job since...on the Isle of Wight.
Pros...I get a "man-smell free" zone, absolute control of the nightly TV schedule and no teaspoons that seem to breed in the sink when he's around. More room in bed, less washing....
Cons...It's business 24/7. We've no time to do the things we used to. Normally we would've gone to Le Mans last weekend or at least to the IOW Festival ! He grafts & might do over 1000 miles a week so just wants to kick back when he's home. Whereas I have to bore him with whats been happening with the business at my end. The customers and staff think I'm a figment of his imagination, because they never see me.
And its our wedding anniversary on Saturday
Personally I don't think it works.
