[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Moan, moan, moan. Oh! the horrors of taking care of your own children. Find opposite shifts to work. Tons of couples do this.[/quote] Every time this very reasonable suggestion (which is already being done by millions of people every day) is made, DCUM clutches its collective pearls in horror. “No! I could never do that and not be on the same schedule as my husband. What about my mental health?!?!” :roll: You had the kids. You need the childcare in order to work. If you really can’t afford it (and just don’t want to pay for it), then share childcare with someone working different shifts or stagger with your spouse. No, it may not be “easy” to do this, or to find jobs with those schedules or to work them, but do it anyway. [/quote] Because they don't want the gravy train to end. They aren't working the hours they say they are and with RTO that cheating ends.[/quote] Many are. With rto because of the time changes my spouse is now leaving at 7 and often getting home around 10 pm. They work. The job stays the same, so now no flexibility and it costs $20 in gas and tolls not including having to buy a new car. This is not sustainable. Can you work those hours plus an hour commute each way. You were lazy and did not work so you assume others don’t. Companies are going to lose good workers. [/quote] So they should pay you less to wfh subtract commuter and child cost[/quote]
