[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone tell me how employees in private sectors handle all these childcare issues post-covid? For example, nurses, EMTs, polce officiers, teachers, supermarket workers, factory workers, etc.[/quote]

Well, they often leave kids home alone, occasionally with an older (ie., 10 year old) child.[/quote]

What? No, we make life choices that acknowledge that we actually e full time jobs.  So, after care, nanny, grandparents, daycare, split shifts/ night shift, SAHM parent by choice for a few years, etc. college student babysitter just for pickup/driving to activities….

I never understood why office workers assume all frontline workers are poor and do things like skip childcare to save money.  We often make more than a basic fed, actually.

Some of us cannot afford a nanny or day care on our salaries.  I was a social worker.  Take home barely covered day care for one.  I quit and never looked back.  My spouse is rto in Jan and has been at home for years before Covid.  Now, instead of the 10+ hours he will work his 8 and not be flexible.  No more dinner or commute phone calls.  He’ll be in by six and leave at 4-5.  Less productive, less flexibility. [/quote]
