[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After you get the job offer and before you accept, you let them know your schedule needs. If it is really a matter of 9:30-5:30 instead of 9-5, I would assume it would be a non-issue for most employers.[/quote]

+100 I'm genuinely curious why people who are seeing job postings are mentally skipping to several steps ahead. [/quote]

Because applying to jobs takes effort and time, and if one can get a sense that a certain ask isn't worth it, then they won't bother wasting that effort and time.[/quote]

It looks to me that you are lazy and can't solve a problem.  Pre-covid, parents in the DMV did this all of the time.  I am a long time federal manager and some of the things my staff can't seem to work out at home to make it to the office between 10 and 2:30 core hours is pretty ridiculous, - my kids need a hot breakfast and can't possibly ride the bus, needs to remote work twice a week for doctor's appointments when the spouse works from home full time, can't commute when their kids have a game after school.  camps are expensive.  I really wonder how much work people were doing pre RTO.  I raised two kids and worked FT prior to covid (kids are 26 and 23), I paid for before care and I had a PT nanny after school (I paid them $30 per hour from 3:00-5:30pm), I paid thousands of dollars in summer camp and spent most of January figuring schedules.  It was not that hard.  [/quote]

They're communicating to you that this job is not worth solving these problems. Maybe that's a misjudgment on their part, but it's not being unable to solve them. [/quote]

Do most job changes come with a $50k salary bump? that's the only scenario where it works about by using PP's approach.  [/quote]did they take a pay cut during Covid[/quote]
