Mi vida cambi\u00f3 radicalmente cuando tuve a mi hijo. No ten\u00eda tiempo para nada. Days revolved around satisfying the baby’s needs<\/strong> \u2013 I would be happy if I could find time to wash my hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Record\u00e9 aquellos d\u00edas en los que s\u00f3lo est\u00e1bamos nosotros dos, mi maridito y yo, y me couldn\u2019t figure out how I had a hard time organizing my schedule before I had kids<\/strong>. \u00a1C\u00f3mo me atrev\u00ed a pensar que estaba ocupado y cansado!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ser padre es un trabajo a tiempo completo. Cuando a\u00f1ades otro trabajo a tiempo completo a tu agenda diaria, te metes en un torbellino de innumerables responsabilidades.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been exhausted for years trying to hacer tantas cosas en 24 horas.<\/strong> That\u2019s why I get so frustrated and on the edge of tears every time one of my single colleagues shows a lack of understanding for my behavior at the office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfPor qu\u00e9 las madres tienen una agenda tan apretada?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"mujer<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Despu\u00e9s de un d\u00eda muy duro en el trabajo, cuando mi jefe me dijo que parec\u00eda distra\u00edda, llegu\u00e9 a casa sinti\u00e9ndome muy mal. Cuando mis hijos se durmieron Me sent\u00ed desesperada e intent\u00e9 ver si alguien m\u00e1s sent\u00eda lo mismo que yo.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google led me to Jamie Johnson\u2019s blog<\/a> donde pod\u00eda leer todo sobre los retos diarios a los que se enfrenta como madre trabajadora.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s a mother of two boys and she’s sharing her experience in balancing her private and work life<\/strong>. \u00a1Esta mujer cuenta mi historia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Una de las entradas del blog contiene una divertida recopilaci\u00f3n de sus pensamientos respecto a ciertas situaciones de oficina.<\/strong> Empieza a explicar por qu\u00e9 no puede hacer horas extras:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cPlease stop judging me for leaving the office at exactly 5 pm, but my kids are waiting to be picked up from the sitter\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

S\u00ed, la gente sin hijos se olvida de que las ni\u00f1eras y las guarder\u00edas tienen horario de cierre y se espera que lleguemos puntuales a recoger a nuestros hijos. Pocas veces he llegado tarde y no les ha hecho ninguna gracia. Los horarios de apertura tambi\u00e9n influyen en nuestra capacidad para llegar a tiempo al trabajo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI know I was late today, but I can\u2019t drop the baby off at daycare until 7:45 am.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfFracasamos como madres si trabajamos a tiempo completo?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When our babies are sick we become so worried that it blurs out our mental capabilities and attention span. I feel guilty for being at the office while feeling it was necessary to take the kid to the doctor immediately. \u201cAm I a good mother?\u201d<\/em> \u2013 one of the questions that pops up occasionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI know that I seem distracted, because I am distracted. I have a sick toddler and I am waiting to find out when I can get him into the pediatrician.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Feeling so overwhelmed with all the emotions my son passes on to me on a daily basis, plus all the usual stress at work, boy it all makes me so edgy sometimes so I don\u2019t notice if my verbal or written communication sounds wrong. This is a great example and I can fully empathize:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t mean for my email to seem snippy, but I have a five-year old that cried this morning because he didn\u2019t want to go to school, and I am worried about him.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Estimados empresarios, \u00a1tengan compasi\u00f3n!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"mam\u00e1<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cuando durante la entrevista inicial mi el empleador me confirm\u00f3 que es un entorno de trabajo favorable a las madres Me sent\u00ed como si me hubiera tocado la loter\u00eda<\/strong>. That was the main thing I was looking for in a company I would work for \u2013 to have understanding and flexibility for my family and the kids-related responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie escribi\u00f3 un maravilloso agradecimiento a sus antiguos jefes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThank you to every boss that has let me leave for doctor\u2019s appointments, unexpected sicknesses, preschool graduations and school lunches.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I caught myself working harder than my coworkers as I felt guilty for coming and leaving at the exact time of stated working hours. That\u2019s why I almost cried over this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI understand that you feel like you need to overcompensate because you get to work just on time and leave the minute the clock strikes five.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re worried about how work will affect your kids and feel torn between your personal life and work duties read what Jamie has to say about it (while hugging my son I can say I fully agree!):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t have to choose between two worlds that you love. You can have them both. You can have a family and a career. It\u2019s not easy, but it is possible.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re a working mom you\u2019ll easily identify with all that Jamie wrote. Many women surely do! Have a look at some of the supportive comments on her post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m a full-time mom also, which means I have TWO full-time jobs. Coming home from work is just walking into another career. Like you, I\u2019m just thankful that there are some people out here who have operated with grace over the years. Luckily, I think most people understand how chaotic having little kids can be.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Este comentario te dar\u00e1 una idea de c\u00f3mo las altas expectativas ponen a las madres trabajadoras en un ritmo seriamente agitado:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI love this thank you letter sooo much!!! Thank YOU for sharing. As womxn we ALL juggle way too much, thanks to a go go more more culture and patriarchal work environments that are asking us to prove ourselves daily. Prove you\u2019re smart enough, committed enough, work hard enough, focused enough. Don\u2019t rest, admit weakness, show outside interests, show health problems, family troubles, mental health stuff. Just be a committed cog and do your best every moment of a 50+ hr week.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Some of the comments, however, proved why it\u2019s important to share stories like this as some people show an upsetting lack of understanding, such as this one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cDo your job and don\u2019t leave your slack for others. I don\u2019t expect you to cover for my leftovers, learn everything for me from the meetings I missed, or reschedule around my outside life. Why should anyone have to cover for your life choices?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
