[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP there are lots of ways to do it, the real question is whether you need to / have to. Our daycare is open long hours and our ES has before and aftercare. We have made a decision that we don't want to spend these few precious years going into RTO everyday to do whatever nonsense Trump and Elon want. So, DH is quitting a perfectly good federal job. Hybrid would have been perfectly fine or a return to pre-Covid practices at his agency. Luckily we can coast for a period on my income, I realize that's a privilege. We had some reasons specific to us as well.

There are obviously other options. None really get you back the time with your kids that you may now have to spend on a long commute. Just my two cents.

Absolutely agree with a PP that they will cheer at women exiting the workforce, it's part of what they want. [/quote]

That's a dumb choice for a temporary issue. What quality time do you think will be gained from an extra 90 minutes of helping your kid put their shoes on or standing at a bus stop every day? Weird priorities imo.[/quote]

I really hope that was sarcastic, that you think time with kids is worthless. Plenty of families have a SAHP or one person with a PT or flexible job because they value that time, it's not an unusual "priority."

What part of it are you calling a "temporary issue"? Do you think RTO mandates will dissolve soon?[/quote]
