[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Changing jobs when you are a middle aged parent is very precarious. You probably have way more doctor’s appointments for yourself and your kids than most jobs will tolerate. Working parents should not change jobs it’s unrealistic to expect a new employer to give you the same arrangements as a job where you have already proven yourself. [/quote] It is definitely harder in the first year when you need to prove yourself and accrue leave, sometimes longer if the new employer has bad PTO. If it's possible to rely on the other parent for kids' stuff for a while, that helps. But it's not so much of an issue that it's impossible. Most people can't stay in the same job for 30 years anymore, not even feds these days.[/quote]
