Transcript

If I am the sole provider for my wife and my children and I spent an hour driving to work, an hour driving back and I worked a 12 hour long ass shift and I come home and my wife says, you know I've been with the kids all day so now it's your turn, right after I got off my shift, you know what I would tell her? I would tell her, yes, I'll take over and I will help with the kids. You know why? Because I have worked many jobs in my life and there is no job that compares to 12 hours with two toddlers. There is no job. There is no job that compares to 12 hours with one toddler. You have a two year old for 12 hours, you will lose your mind.
