You Scream, I Scream

Reports indicate that stay-at-home moms would earn $131,471 in annual salary if they were actually paid for all the work they do. A six figure salary people!

Right now I am as far away from a six figure salary as you can get. And struggling with the fact that tomorrow I get to return to my job for a reduced salary.

The question is, will my actual workload be reduced? Will I be assigned fewer books or is the expectation that I just have fewer days to complete the work? Hmmmmmmm.

I've recently read a lot about women being pushed out of their jobs rather than opting to stay home, about the work place bias against mothers, about the maternal wall.

I'll take that $131, 471. Large bills please.
