Title. This may not be the subreddit but I am hoping for any advice. I've been with my partner for 3 years. For all this time, he's always been taking his jobs seriously. It is mostly blue collar jobs and he's being paid well. Unfortunately though, his new job requires him to work 16-24 hours, and he will work those hours as the pay is closer to 300% for OT + off-office hours.
