Finding the work-work balance!

Browsing through PhD comics earlier I found one  that particularly reflects my situation at the moment.  It made me smile and sigh at the same time!  I just thought I'd share it as I guess it might be familiar to many researchers during busy times...

  1. Funny! I try and tell myself that after I leave the office no more work!
    Sometimes I do find myself opening the laptop for a little return to work once I get home. However, my wife is usually pretty good at enforcing a proper work-life balance!

  2. It is all too familiar for me too...although I must confess I spend most of my time sorting and editing photos and photo albums or looking up 80s kids tv/cartoons on youtube than doing actual work! Thanks for a lighter post and reminding me of how much I like PhD comics.
