I'm working again this evening until about 20:00, and I'll be in at 06:00 tomorrow morning too. There have been some big issues with our new database (which incidentally went live on Monday!), and I'm involved in getting it sorted.
It's not strictly speasking part of my job (although it probably comes under the heading of 'Ad-Hoc Tasks'), I'm one of the most qualified people to do it. I am extremely dedicated to my work and this company, and I'll do whatever needs to be done to keep things ticking - even if I get into trouble with senior managers (which I often do!!)
The thing is, I know that it upsets Caroline, and I don't want work to get in the way of us. I certainly don't want her to think that I'm more dedicated to work than I am to her, because that definitely is not the case.
The last thing I want to do is upset her.
