OBJECTIVE: This paper offers a reflection on temporal routines that underscore daily work life and work transitions. PARTICIPANTS: This reflection includes views of a Canadian student who examines work transitions through lived experiences and observation of the Chilean work/home routine. METHOD: A narrative reflection on lived experience is used to examine 9 to 5 work transitions. RESULTS: There is a blending of work and daily life routines that provide a balance for workers in Chile and there are differences across countries in the valuing of work and daily life routines. CONCLUSIONS: Narrative reflections about work and work transitions can highlight differences at the macro level that can yield personal insights into challenges in transitioning into work for new immigrants.
