Rules for Working Mums

[share a book]

Following on from the previous post...

Your child's interhouse swimming carnival is on at school, and the race your child is in will be on between 11 and 11.30 so surely you can leave work for a while to watch it. Your child makes the interschool swimming team. Surely you can step out of work for an hour to make sure you catch that race.

Same goes for athletics.

Just that once...

Even though you say you'll be back from maternity leave on a certain date expect that none of your colleagues (or payroll) believe you. Because apparently extended unpaid maternity leave is SO MUCH better than paying rent and bills.

If your boss forgets to pay you that's ok, you don't really need the money, we work because we want to once we have kids, not because we need to :/

My Boss does this ALL the time and its INFURIATING! Sometimes I just wanna yell "Do you think I leave my crying daughter at kindy because enjoy the guilt, and at the end of the week I love being as poor as I was when I started it!

GRRR!

How about -

Why should you get Centrelink benefits when I don't? So what if my hubby earns squillions, I still need to pay my house cleaner!

Or -

You're so lucky you rent. I wish I could rent so I don't have to pay my mortgage. (this from a woman that's never lived in a rented house all her life)

Rule # __:

If you enjoy work then you mustn't love your child/ren. Because *everyone* has the ability to be a SAHM for at least the first year. What's wrong with you?

Rule # __:

You are only working because you made poor financial choices. Why should your child suffer for your idiocy?




*sigh* But this thread has made me feel better

[maryjane86]

really good thread, how about single colleagues rolling eyes their eyes when you mention you got to leave an hour early cos you got to pick your kid up or when you apply urgent leave bcos he swallowed something he wasn't supposed to. not everyone has the luxury of being SAHM. this thread has indeed made me feel better!
