I have a counter anecdote to your anecdote in that only 1 out of the last 5 remote jobs I've held required travel and I was allowed to skip it for that one job.

It really is chaotic for some workers with families to expect 5+ days being away from the home. From taking the kids to school to picking them up, getting groceries, managing after-school activities, helping with home-work, etc. and putting the pressure of 24/7 care on an already strained parent for an entire week is not always easy. Some parents also do coaching for the school sports teams. Ordinarily you're working 8 hours a day and available for the remainder of the day. On a "business trip" you're gone the full 24 hours; the impact becomes even more amplified with that.
- nevermindiguess 5y agoSince you have so many other priorities that come before your job perhaps you are not suitable for a job at all. At least not for one that requires something as simple as a business trip. McDonald’s does not require business trips for example. No way I would ever hire someone as entitled as you are. In fact, I already fired 2.
