My husband (we’re childfree) is way more likely to get called into work on a weekend to fix something than his other coworkers are because they all have children, who are all teens by now, too. I guess spending time with your wife and going to the park on a Saturday just isn’t as important as taking your kid to the park on a Saturday. Hmm.
Has he ever tried setting boundaries around that? Is he getting compensated more for coming in on a weekend?
Yes, he gets paid for it. It’s just predictable and annoying that it’s always him “ because kids “. Definitely gets old.
Can he say no? Another way to view this is that because y'all don't have kids he has an opportunity to make more money than all his coworkers who have kids, assuming he's choosing to do this work
Yeah he’s said no before and they’ve either decided no one should do whatever was originally brought up or one of them will eventually “ miss out on family time “ to go do the work.
Guess it's time for you and he to have some kids! If you don't want to 'steal' pictures from facebook, there's always the new image generators.
