A mate of mine earns a comfortable £55k. I asked over a pint why he also has a weekend job.

Without pausing a beat, he said “it’s because I can’t stand my wife and kids, and it’s cheaper and more convenient than getting divorced.”

He then chuckled and went to the bar to get another round in.

@SW-User He’s happy, he loves his weekend job and he’s still living up to the expectation people have of men by providing for his family no matter how ungrateful they are.
I’m going to a barbecue at his house in July, that’ll be awkward.
