I underestimated the value of children. One of the assistants in my office was out all week because one of her kids was sick. ALL WEEK. By way of comparison, all of last year I took a total of 9 hours of sick time. NINE. And yet, no one questions taking an entire week off to take care of a kid, but if you do not have a kid, you are just expected to limp into work every fucking day, no matter how shitty you feel physically (or mentally). Great system.
