Recession: Tough on Working Couples
The economy is making life more difficult for working couples, The Wall Street Journal reports, particularly when one person gets a job offer out of town.
The search for work is forcing more couples into long-distant relationships. A survey of 1,450 job seekers found 18% relocated in the second quarter, up from 11% last year.

Yes, very difficult! Not only for couples who find themselves in a long-distant relationship, but for those who find themselves working different schedules. For the first time in our 27 year relationship, my husband and I are working different work schedules – he works days, I work nights. It’s not working for either of us, and is causing a great deal of stress which result in numerous arguments.
