Yeah, that's why we get fired for not showing up when we're scheduled.
Because I understand how things work in the real world I guess?
I didn't say that anywhere. I said they shouldn't get preferential treatment and they should plan accordingly to work the shifts they are scheduled for or face the consequences. Same as childless people do. Are you saying every parent is incapable of that?
And we take the hit when we have an unscheduled day off. That's how being employed works. Forcing childless people to have more unscheduled days off because parents get priority on scheduling PTO is unfair to those without kids.
Yeah. Employers aren't going to change. If everyone wants to mob up and try to force them to I'm all for it. But for now the reality of the situation is childless people are getting shafted worse than parents because the parents demand special treatment.
