My Husband Puts Work First

I am certain he is obsessed with his work. He tries to prolong any amount of time has to go there, he is always late home, has extra meetings on his days off, and just 'calls in' when he happens to be down that way.

He'll swap any work hours at anyone work mates request - but won't ever ever ever ask anyone to swap around if I need him too.

He goes to work even when he is sick unless he is physically unable to get himself out of bed. I think I can only recall one time when he has had a sick day in the last 5 years.

Even when I or the children have needed to go to the hospital, he just complains about 'going to be late for work' and drops me off there with the kids.

Early one morning I was so sick I thought I was dying, I told him he'd need to take me to the hospital. He dropped me off at the ER with kids in prams, leaving me to cry my way through giving details to the nurse, and then called and woke up my parents and told them to come get my kids, and then left for work.

Then on the times you think he has taken the day off, a sick day, what he has actually done is said 'I'll come in on my days off to make up for it'. Which of course are days when I've already got stuff to do, but now everything has to be rearranged to suit him.

I just don't understand how anyone could be so selfish and think everything is ok??
