[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][size=9] [/size][quote=Anonymous]I think people are soft. I spend 32 hours in a climate controlled office for hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Health insurance where I have access to all different types of doctors, weeks of paid leave a year, sick leave etc. Women used to be stuck at home doing laundry and dishes by hand, cloth diapers, left without a car all day, no ability to have anything delivered, cooking from scratch daily. They got paid $0. No retirement account. No paid leave. For some women this was better, but for many it’s not. I have to get my kids to soccer practice. Oh no. Seriously I feel bad for people if we ever do experience another world war or Great Depression. [/quote] What jobs is 32h and pays $200k?? Sign me up! I mean women have to wash dishes and change diapers just now squeezed in between working. Standards were much lower, and it wasn’t like what you did could advance your children’s station in life so there was more acceptance. It certainly is better, but women feel if they aren’t doing enough for their family they will fall behind, so that pressure is novel to the modern age. [/quote] Plenty of Gen X women worked full time out of the house all day and then did child care and the second shift. Why are millennials always thinking that they invented everything? 😂[/quote] We don’t think we invented it, we just think it’s a scam and don’t want to do it. I guess you were ok with it. [/quote]
