The thing that's not acceptable is micromanaging bosses and the attitude that business is more important than family.

If family is more important then your paycheck, why dont you resign? Why should someone without a family invest more at work just because you consider work a secondary thing?

  Because people have to pay bills and there aren't other options readily available. And I think it's OK for workers to try to change company culture over time while employed.

  What a weird binary. Obviously someone’s children are more important to them than their job. Are you suggesting that’s a problem?

  how do you think you were born and raised into this world? did your parent(s) quit their jobs after you were born, stop earning any income, and raise you in a cardboard box on the steeet? do you expect only millionaires to have children? jesus…have some empathy. Life is more than work work work.

If you think family is more important then your job, then please just quit and dedicate yourself to what you think is more important. But dont forget that family is an optional thing, that you decided to go for. Your coworkers without a family actually dont care how you spend your spare time. But if you are using your family as an excuse at work, we start to care, and see that you are trying to enforce unfairness. Its your family, deal with it as you like, but dont take it with you to work.

  Do you even listen to yourself? What would your friends and family think? I couldn't come up with more soulless corporate apologetics if I tried. Quitting isn't realistic because bills still exist, so unless you plan on paying those for me you might want to keep your inhuman nonsense to yourself. You sound like those American walmart managers that tried to set up in Germany and got BTFO because spineless business worship is not entertained.
