- Delia, a graduate of Rice University and Hastings School of Law, works 15 hours a day, which is normal in the investment banking industry. Each weekday, she's out the door at seven and doesn't get home until ten in the evening, when her kids are already in bed. Her husband's schedule is better, but he travels frequently: Sometimes, he goes to Shanghai for nine months at a time.
I don't think I could imagine having a job like that, let alone having that job and a family. You practically can't have a life outside your job with a schedule like that. It's no wonder grandparents lean in. Those are some huge sacrifices to make.
