Agreed. He's self-aware enough to realize that he has an ego problem, but not quite self-aware enough to do anything about it. Oh, and he has a therapist. Classic.
If he wanted to have time for all his hobbies, plus working 12-hours days and weekends in a super-sexy startup, he shouldn't be married, and definitely shouldn't have kids. What did he think - that kids raise themselves?
His specific, very long whine about having a collicky infant. Geez. Guess what, millions of people have that particular bit of fun. It's pretty horrible at the time, but it's only a short time in the big scheme of things.
And now his wife has an ill family member, maybe a parent she has to support. So the guy has to do the grocery shopping. Tragedy.
Yeah, he's aware that he's whining. He could still stop. Why did this make HN?
