Several engineering firms have a mom track with reduced hours, especially in the consulting world. You can even start your own LLC and do engineering consulting for as many or as few hours as you want. You have options for this.

That’s a great filter for women as well, because if he was genuinely interested in her then he would use everything going for him to pique her interest. He would especially share that he’s a surgeon.

It’s strange how much parents think they can control a guest list even when they’re not paying anything for the wedding. Like dude, you’re on the guest list yourself. The only RSVP you can control is your own.

The best thing is to have a side hustle LLC that you barely do anything with, but it can fill the gap in your resume.

every playdate and bbq and birthday and field trip is the result of many days of invisibly planning and gathering supplies and coordinating… it’s looks like just sitting around on your phone or endlessly shopping until it turns into a party 🎉

Girlboss here means any woman who prioritizes her career over her appearance. Sydney is still considered more successful at being hot than successful at her career… even though her career is in being hot.

You’re laying out a more detailed plan by the minute and I’m writing everything down!

Has anyone ever successfully negotiated for 41.5 weeks?

Right. Only women care about proper care/handling of their tools. Feel free to go out to the garage and use that stuff any which way.
How to understand the difference between men and women: Him: Where are the scissors? Her: You can't use those, they're for cloth. >>time passes<< Her: WHY ARE YOU TRIMMING YOUR BEARD WITH YOUR POCKET KNIFE?!?!?!? Him: You hid the scissors. In other words, women care about intended use, while men only care if they get the job done. H/T to @kittyniciaian who did not in any way inspire this entirely fictional anecdote that in no way happened three minutes ago

Out of earshot means the parents can’t hear it.

your daughter is statistically more likely to be assaulted by her father than a random nurse but go off i guess
I took my 11 year old to her checkup this morning and the nurse asked me to step out of the room for a moment. I politely declined and she said, "It's just for a moment." And I told her, "No thank you, given all the stories about children being abused my husband and I decided to never leave our children alone with anyone, even medical providers. Anything you need to do or say you can do with me in the room." She looked all miffed and just left, no idea what her plan was but she didn't feel the need to continue it with me present and that makes me even more suspicious?? When she left my daughter thanked me for not leaving, she's already shy about the doctor, her eyes got so wide when the lady asked me to leave.

Why can’t there be a middle ground where the kid gets asked the questions out of earshot of the parent but still in sight of the parent? Like the parent stands at the other end of a long hallway?

There is no more "working class" in the sense of a class of functional workers who accept earning far less than the middle class, and thus provide services that feel affordable to the middle class. Your plumber wants and will have all the same stuff that *you* have. Or More.

She will have missing teeth and still be too good for him.

Why do we never tell husbands they have to contribute to their wife’s retirement fund? Spousal IRAs exist for a reason.
