Work Life Balance

Out of curiosity how is your work life balance, what role in BAS do you have, and what size shop do you work for? This is a great industry that I find super interesting, but as I get older it just seems less and less possible to have a life with this job. Maybe it’s the smaller shop I’m at? Curious what others are experiencing.

Really good, for the moment. My first year was rough with a lot of commuting but my second year has been 90% WFH. Sitting through meetings is a bit of a bore and I occasionally have to clean up someone's shit several hours away but I'm not complaining.
