[QUOTE="MartinH, post: 190247, member: 1494"] Hey Guys, I have a question. My wife is interviewing for career changing job. The problem is that it would mean a cross country move, which means I need a job as well. So here's the thing, I know you don't talk money or benefits during the initial job interview, but how do you bring up the honest fact that you simply can't accept the job unless there is a place for the husband? We can't live on one salary, that's the real problem. Here is also some background, from my point of view. On the one hand, I absolutely love my job, I love what I do and the people I work with. It's the dream job. On the other hand, my wife is totally, absolutely, completely miserable at what she does. This might be the chance of a lifetime to make a change for the positive in her life. Despite my love for my job, I'm 100% behind her, if I can find a job and be happy as well. Ah, one of those life's big conundrums. Hey, maybe I should be a "house husband" spend my time smoking my pipes, carving some, and working on my writing? LOL -- yeah right! Any advice is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
