Are all relationships doomed to fail due to FIFO lifestyle?

Post Body

Many people who work FIFO with me have told me they have been divorced due to the nature of the industry, or are experiencing issues, but are trapped due to the high salaries . Is this actually the case? Or did working FIFO benefit your relationship with your partner and kids?

I will be working 8/6. What roster is the best?

It's all good for us but saying that, it's the lifestyle the kids have always known. It's all about setting the family up for success before you leave on roster. Mow the lawn, clean the pool filter, make sure there's minimal likelihood of shit going haywire while you're away (pro-tip : change the batteries for the smoke alarms for your short ass wife on a regular basis).

Kids enjoy the extra time when you're home, especially on school holidays. It's better vacation wise too, one swing off gives you three weeks to have a decent holiday.
