This is why I brought this up. I had the same situation where the only person on the team who had a "valid excuse" was the one who had to take kids to school in the morning. Other people on the team felt they were required to do more work because they had chosen not to have kids. Any method of defining what constitutes a valid excuse is likely to step on someone's toes.
- tbrownaw 11y agoThis person wasn't expected to stay the same amount late at the end of the day?
- dangero 11y agoNot in this case no, but even in the case where they were asked to stay late I would still find the idea that they had special priviledges to reconfigure their schedule unfair. As a parent myself I just believe I'm not entitled to special treatment at work because of the life choices I've made to have kids.
- troels 11y agoWas there complete transparency on salary there? I mean - that person might have made a deal with your employer to take a lower salary in return for that privilege. Either explicitly or simply by not getting the same raise as they would otherwise. I find it a bit peculiar that people concern themselves with these things, but have no problem with differential in pay.
