You're right, it's better to attack your fellow workers instead of putting blame where it belongs.

You're advocating for all parents to be fired from their jobs because they have children.
You still think you know how things work in the real world?
The sex worker is still the one setting the prices and what services she offers in this comparison.
The example isn't that a rapist is setting the cost of raping a victim.
Why are you being a shill for capitalism?
The responsibility to have work coverage is on your employer, not your coworkers.
The only one I ever adhere to is not wearing a white bridal-looking gown to a wedding.
But all the others can go.
Thanks for taking that "chose to breed" line out.
It always surprises me when acknowledgement that rape happens gets downvoted. It shouldn't surprise me anymore, but it does.
Its also hilarious to assume every childbirth is intentional.
It's part of the sexism that is barely under the surface of childfree communities. Harder to punish women for their life choices if they have to think about the many reasons one may find themselves burdened with a child.
Parents think their kid's bullshit is more important than their own job, not yours. That's why they aren't clocking in for their own job that day.
It's your employers fault for calling you in on a day off and your fault for accepting it.
I don’t hear it talked about often, but vertigo is also a symptom. My vertigo episodes aren’t frequent and usually only during specific activities, so it’s not a big issue at this time. I typically get vertigo when I park my car on a slight incline; when the car settles into park, it feels like the entire car is rolling away and I have to sit and stare at a fixed point until it passes. Thankfully, it only lasts a few seconds but it is noticeable.
Oh my god, peri could be why I had issues with vertigo late last year?! Ugh. But also thanks for the heads up!
As if the length of a comment is directly related to its worth.
All I see is a bunch of hot air from a man who chooses to be willfully ignorant about the world because it serves him better to do so.
Every person is incapable of never needing a day off of work.
No matter how hard you want to blame parents for your misfortunes, the work balance is ultimately the responsibility of your employer.
You will never rid the world of children and parents.
