[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does it ever annoy you or make you take pause? Work colleague is a year younger than me (both of us are in our early 40s) and we are both Directors/VP positions. She makes 2x what I make (I know because I work on budgets) and it sometimes makes me think I should have worked harder/not mommy-tracked myself so much. I make $150,000 and she makes $300,000. She definitely has more responsibilities than I do and I am not thinking she doesn't deserve her salary. However I think if I pushed harder in my own career I could also be making similar amount of money. I mommy-tracked hard and had 3 kids in less than 5 years. Husband makes a high salary and there was no ability for me to push my career forward with so many maternity leaves/kid duties. [/quote] Being a mom is more valuable than ditching parenthood for a career. And one year younger is peanuts.[/quote]
