These past few days, I realized that I essentially have no idea what my husband actually does for a living. I know he’s a businessman and involved in different industries; that’s about it. I guess I was never curious, as long as he brings money home + he doesn’t talk about work when he’s not working. I just don’t really have any interest in business.

    My wife doesn’t really know what I do for a living. It isn’t a secret but my job is complicated and my title/ position doesn’t correlate to the work I do. I generally don’t talk about work at home, mostly because the conversation would be so high level it’s meaningless or I would need to give her a 4 hour lecture so she would have the background / framework of whatever the nightmare of the week is. 🤷‍♂️

    In short, no I don’t think so.

      What do you do? My work is also complicated, but my wife is smart, and I can even summarize the gist of what I do in simple terms so I can explain it to people of all backgrounds.
