[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t believe how callous the people on this post are. Give the women and men who care for your children every day a little more respect. Everyone deserves health and a paycheck right now. No essential worker is any more important than any daycare worker. [/quote]

Our country also deserves to not decimate our national security-related agencies. [/quote]

Perhaps they should have internal childcare centers then. [/quote]

Some do, but you have to realize they can't accommodate every single kid of the employees. There are also issues with using internal childcare centers when one parent works at the agency and the other doesn't (and so doesn't have easy access to the compound).

Also, even an internal childcare center is staffed by childcare workers, who aren't necessarily paid a ton of money. [/quote]

Yep. But if the expectation is to have coverage for these parents, it should be addressed internally instead of being shipped out to the suburbs. [/quote]

What? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Are you saying these places should have had childcare available for their entire workforce prior to the pandemic? Not only would that be exceptionally expensive, but it's not a feasible option for all employees.

If you're arguing they should just create childcare facilities for all of their employees now, I think you are grossly underestimating how difficult it is to just magically expand childcare facilities.

Lastly, your comment about the suburbs suggests you have no clue what agencies we're discussing, as most of them ARE in the suburbs. [/quote]

Hey you’re not wrong. But it’s about as inane as keeping daycare is open so one slice of the work force can be in.  i’m sorry that should just be handled If daycare‘s are staying open just for one slice of the population. I guess everyone is going to need to look at catastrophe planning differently now.  It doesn’t make any less sense than people complaining about all the other things that aren’t working right now. No one can really work well with the daycare shut down. [/quote]

Your comment makes zero sense.[/quote]

And yours really doesn’t either, but do you want to believe everything that you wrote. [/quote]
