Do you think there is discrimination against childless people in the workplace? Just curious:-)? | |
A while back, I worked on a job where if you had children, you could call in sick to work or take off for various reasons, with little to no consequences. Whereas, if you did not have children and called in, you would get some dirty looks from management the next day. Anyone else notice this or anything similar to it in the work place?
Answers:
1I have complained about this for years. Just because I choose to have safe sex, and not have a child til I am ready, I get punished in the work place, and also by the federal government on my taxes. I think it is ridiculous. I had a young single mother (sloot, ahem) that I worked with, she would call and say, baby is sick, baby is injured, no babysitter, and had no consequences. I call in because I fell down some stairs, they want doctors notes, and physical evidence of my injury. Completely crap. I think we should start a website, or hire a lawyer, get ahold of me.

i believe there is discrimination against single, childless people in the workplace. just today i was asked to work sunday, the 7th day in a row, when my two co-workers who have children and significant others were not asked to come in. does my boss now hold it against me that i said i would not come in? why was i the only one asked? i believe this is a blatant act of discrimination.
