Parenting

One day a year is one thing, but everyday? No way. However, I do think corporations should do more to help employees with child care. On site child care, maybe? Or business that are grouped together in a business park - why don't they all contribute to a child care center in the park? As someone with no children, often times I was the one required to stay late to finish a proposal because my colleagues had to pick up their children by six or be penalized. If Saturday hours were required, they asked me first, because "you have no family," as one executive put it. Because if you don't have children, you're perfectly happy spending your evenings & weekends at work.
