It is not unusual that our job rob us of our lifestyle. We all need to work for an income and it is not always easy to find a job which gives the possibility to divide your day equally in working time and time to relax or/and a family life.

You probably know the people who are going to travel and take their laptop with them for keeping in touch with the company. This is a good example about how jobs can rob people's lifestyle.
