Is it just me, or are some of these work from home schedules simply not sustainable for the months that this is expected to last? I work for myself and have had to cut my hours way down after our childcare closed and I don’t see those hours coming back anytime soon. I won’t be taking new clients and may have to turn down projects for existing ones, since I can count on my spouse only helping for 1-2 hours a day, sometimes 3 or 4 hours. I am worried about my friends that are sleeping 3-5 hours a night to put in a full day with kids and their job. I just don’t see how this is sustainable.
we’re supposed to be wearing a bra?
