....and when the question come why he left that particular job 5 years ago, he says it was because his wife (!) left him (not former wife, he says wife) and he had shared custody for his child.
Yeah, SO -good bye to this job where is a bit of travelling involved- after all they know now that you need to "look after" your child as a priority !! Man!! Every mother knows that saying such things is a no no!!!!! But a guy even worse.

when my dh and i first got together, the first thing i taught him was that job was priority #1. i told him it comes before children's wants, before his wants and before my wants. he used to turn down overtime because he had his boys that weekend as an excuse (his mother would watch them most of the weekend anyway!). i told him that he better not turn down anymore overtime cause he already had a babysitter. i won't tolerate a man that doesn't work hard who has a huge financial burden as child support. and, if it means he misses an occasional weekend with kids, it's not the end of the world cause paying child support is the most important thing to bm and the courts (for the kids is a bullshit excuse no matter where it comes from - it's ALL about the money - if it weren't child support wouldn't be so high and states wouldn't be getting kick-backs). but yeah, he tried to hide behind his kids and i put an end to that, and your dh needs to come up with a more professional reason for leaving jobs and be very serious about his employment.
