[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is your husband allowed to just be “unavailable”? That type of rigidity doesn’t work in my family.[/quote] Well when there are 2 incomes people are allowed to occasionally be unavailable. If there is a conflict in which both are unavailable then you hire help or one person tried to reschedule. When the DH became unavailable it was ok because OP knew she had flexibility per her SVP. So it sounds like DH had her blessing. Hopefully her DH has her back if needed in the future, but here there was not ample scheduling opportunity. This is a job issue not a marital issue. Also, many people balance earnings vs flexibility. I have the lower paying more flexible job and am ok with that because this is what works for us. What wouldn’t work is employer expectations changing at the last minute (I make more than 2x OP and would not accept an 8:20 am meeting late notice for 2 weeks straight). [/quote]
