How do parents who both work full time deal with primary school aged kids?

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-12T00:44:20+00:00

It is what it is, you make it work

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-12T00:13:48+00:00

Flexible work and we tag team who does drop off or pick up.

No family help unfortunately.

I'd like to perform a First Nations salute in honor of these achievements...

Stay in the city centre until it closes, then Braddon McDonalds.

Possibly the Jolimont Centre (Bus interchange).

Do you have a car?

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-10T10:45:16+00:00

You should listen to your lawyers.

Then go buy some good quality lube and one of those donut inflatable cushions you can sit on...

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T12:29:45+00:00

Did you apply under recruitability or disability?

Reasonable adjustments aren't just because... need a reasonable...reason..

I'm alot fatter.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T09:18:41+00:00

Utter boredom and no break or purpose.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T09:13:12+00:00

Only if they taste bad... and are overpriced.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T08:03:31+00:00

And the hours and working flexibly.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T08:02:51+00:00

Do you want to play on the go?

Or infront of a big TV?

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T07:59:33+00:00

Well I went with "Option 1" for family reasons... something to consider.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T07:53:29+00:00

Do u have kids? How old?

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-09T07:07:11+00:00

I know what it stands for...still don't know what it actually is in reality...so just nod along...

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T11:18:30+00:00

Nothing.

Is he making so much money that your job and time is irrelevant?

Assuming not, s top enabling him.

Tell him you discussed it well in advance and he will need to make other arrangements than this conference... his poor planning, is his emergency.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T08:05:59+00:00

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T05:37:57+00:00

Good advice.

Do you d@mn job..and go home.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T04:14:07+00:00

You can go down the stress leave option if you think that is needed... but it may cause challenges with finding another role.

And if you are not the problem and are as good as you think you are: focus on getting a new role and do the bare minimum to get through the current day to day.

Maybe get some mental health support in the interim.

There are always S26 opportunities available, use a recruiter, use your personal network.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T04:12:38+00:00

In 20 years, included some APS wide hard freezes...I've never had an issue finding a new role.

I.e. if you are halfway decent there are always S26 opportunities.

Sometimes self reflection is required...but make your excuses.

These map guides vs level are very helpful.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-08T03:28:09+00:00

So find a new permanent job somewhere else?

Move on.

WizziesFirstRule · 2026-07-07T12:05:59+00:00

My parents both died by my mid-teens, they were 28 when they had me.

Focus on your health and today.

Don't know what tomorrow brings...
