A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Summary

About half of working women reported feeling stressed “a lot of the day,” compared to about 4 in 10 men, according to a Gallup report published this week.

The report suggests that competing demands of work and home comprise part of the problem: working women who are parents or guardians are more likely than men who are parents to say they have declined or delayed a promotion at work because of personal or family obligations, and mothers are more likely than fathers to “strongly agree” that they are the default responders for unexpected child care issues.

Plus this is 4/10 stubborn men admitting being stressed, the real number has to be higher lol

I dunno if I'm in the 4/10 admitting it or the 6/10 lying about it but I'm stressed 20/7 (a generous four hours of REM sleep).

You have non-stressful dreams? Lucky.

I dreamed the other day I totaled my car in a bad accident and then went and bought an Acura and was happy with it.

I don't know what that says about my brain that "bad accident totalling my car" wasn't stressful.
