It's not. It's hard to find a second job in that career once you get laid off, for once. There's no labor law restricting your work hours. And you never get a vacation.
- fein 8y agoAnd the outcome of actual reality is that women are putting off childhood until its either too late, or the medical risk increases to dangerous levels. > There's no labor law restricting your work hours. And you never get a vacation. What kind of screwed up family did you come from that gave you this outlook, or is it just interpreting hollywood as reality as I assume much of this nonsense is? I'm sure through history a housewife never got a vacation or a husband that helped out around the house, no it must all be some dystopian version of Handmaidens Tale, because fiction is apparently truth.
- dudul 8y agoHow do you get laid off?
- arandr0x 8y ago"Laid off" means your position is no longer available, so your husband leaves, dies, no longer has the resources to support you, or decides his money is better employed buying a sports car and you have to work for your own food. Even if in some of those cases you could find a different husband, it takes time and it may not offer the same financial conditions as the first one. There's no "market rate" for your services really.
