[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Damn people. How would you feel if your bosses at your fancy white-collar office jobs were saying this kinda stuff?

“Oh, I won’t hire women in their 30s or women with small children. I need some dependable and reliable. What happens when the kid is sick? It becomes my problem. Nah, better safe than sorry.”

How awful! Don’t you hear yourselves? You should be ashamed. It’s also vastly illegal AS IT SHOULD BE. [/quote]

I had the same thought and morally agree with you. From a practical standpoint, if I’m out sick or caring for my kids, my boss can still work (and I can make up work on nights / weekends if needed) which isn’t the case if childcare doesn’t work out. I’ve only ever used daycares, partly for this reason (ie need more predictably). [/quote]

Except when you kid is sick, you miss work because daycare won’t take them (especially now) and a kid getting sick is always unpredictable!  It’s why we pulled DC out of daycare and got a nanny who is sweet and comforting when the kids are sick and we go off to work.
