Feels like I am being punished for being child free
This is more of a vent post than anything. I work for a place where we are assigned into teams consisting of three people who split the workload equally. One of my team members is pregnant and about to go on maternity leave at the end of the month for 12 weeks. My other teammate and I were told by management that we will be taking on all this pregnant persons work plus all the new work coming our way. Usually, if someone goes on leave, work is split with another person from a different team helping out (so three people covering) instead of two. This is all on top of a super busy time we are going through. Just wanted to vent how the breeders in this world get 3 months of paid leave (while us childfree people cannot get access to that same leave) and have to pick up the slack left by these people. That is all. Sorry for angry rant.
