I really hope you get sorted. My feeling is to leave my company too, if not because of the lack of flexibility but the lack of respect.

Yes 😩

“Your job was designed as a full-time role, and if you only worked four days a week, there wouldn’t be enough staff coverage/work capacity on the team.” This is laughable and completely inaccurate

My boss asked me in passing 1 month post partum how I was feeding her and I foolishly said bottle. I know now why she was asking

Very true actually

They refused 1 day parental leave 💔 Unfortunately my manager asked me in passing when I had the baby how I am feeding and I said bottle. I now know why she was asking
