[quote=Anonymous]Its also expectations in the labor market. Its a cultural issue. My DH is actually helpful but he is consistently expected to work normal hours and beyond even knowing that we had a toddler without childcare. There is no flexibility and he works in the fed government. When I brought up applying for COVID leave, he stated 2 issues: 1. He is new as of January and no one else has taken it in his department 2. Even if he takes the leave, he is still expected to complete tasks by supervisor deadlines His particular office has issues with too many chefs and awful management styles. One supervisor will make a meeting at 11:30 for 1pm. So say you take leave from 11-2 to perform your childcare part- well youve just missed an important meeting and aren't going to get a good review. Many managers and supervisors are either the only working spouse OR they make enough to have nannies and extra help. [/quote]
