Working your hardest 40 hours per week (the amount of time your salary is supposed to cover) is no longer acceptable. You have to do it 60 or 80 (for the 40 hour pay rate). No thank you. I don't care to do so. I prefer the outdoors, my kids, and my husband.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22920054.post-1163093882423657122006-11-09T12:38:00.000-05:002006-11-09T12:38:00.000-05:00Ally Bean - "Spiritually deadening" strikes a chor...Ally Bean - "Spiritually deadening" strikes a chord.<BR/><BR/>Tracy - I couldn't agree more, and initially I had thought maybe I could do that kind of feminist change from within the firm. But now, no way! I fully support the efforts of other women to create internal revolutions. It's just not the battle I want to fight.Buttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10799238720510105530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22920054.post-1163091779266894712006-11-09T12:02:00.000-05:002006-11-09T12:02:00.000-05:00I hope that feminism is about to turn a corner. I...I hope that feminism is about to turn a corner. It seems that women have been fighting for their place in a man's world (and rightly so) for a long time. But I think that's also part of the problem. It is still, in many ways, a man's world. I hope that the next season of feminism will be that the man's world will become a man's and a woman's world. In other words, now that we have "proven" that we are equally capable to do the work that men do, I hope that the world we work in will begin to change. Since men were the majority of the workforce for so many years, the working environment and the way of working was a masculine expression. Part of our struggle now is that we are working in a distinctly masculine infrastructure. I hope that now that women have been able to work in a man's world, they will be ale to bring change to that infrastructure, to bring a balance to it so that it has a feminine expression as well.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01875496721000801632noreply@blogger.com
