The average woman puts in half a day's work before she's even left the house, according to new research.

Getting the family and home ready typically totals more than two hours a day, leaving eight in 10 women feeling like they've already done a day's work before they even sit down at their desk. If jobs pile up from the night before, this tally can rise to three hours 15 minutes, compared with the average male who spends only 49 minutes prepping himself and the house.
