The strip is about the Szwyk family. Sam, the father, is a
remote worker who is also in charge of
homemaking, which he does with varying degrees of success. Sandy, the mother, is a successful saleswoman who is always on the go and trying to balance her personal and professional lives. Their two children, Karen and Timmy, are just as busy as their parents and, for better or worse, have picked up their parents' habits. ==References==
