I have to always mop when it snows. And when i mow the lawn. So there is a sweet spot when there is no snow and no lawn mowing where i only mop once a week!

This is why polyamory took off

[-] GhostFace@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago

I know it's a joke, but please hear me out... Just get roommates to share chores with.

The majority of people out there are not cut out to be poly.

This is why polygamy took off.

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 0 points 4 hours ago

The difference? I personally haven't had any good experiences with any of these words

[-] HoopyFrood@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

Polygamy = man has many wives

Polyamory = person has many partners

As i understand it, it’s all about how much misogyny is at play

[-] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 6 points 6 hours ago

I honestly see the appeal of it

Doesn't the amount of dishes just skyrocket tho

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 hours ago

Yeah but that's why you get a partner who is good at dishes and doesn't mind doing them if you vacuum. You just happen to be better a vacuuming. It's the same idea that makes trading with other countries better than doing everything local.

[-] Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org 2 points 4 hours ago

I don't mind doing dishes, as long as those end up in the sink or colse to it. Don't make me clean those up across the home.

One of the reasons it is important to find a decently paying part-time job: so you can have enough time for these things.

[-] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 25 points 8 hours ago

A decently paying part-time job is so rare that it’s basically an oxymoron

[-] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

No, that's just a high paying skilled job that does part time. Medical jobs are plentiful or specialty things.

[-] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 hours ago

Fair, but at part time hours I could never afford cost-of living. My partner and I are both full-time skilled healthcare workers and find that the increases in cost of living are putting a squeeze on our monthly budget, which often leaves me wondering how the rest of the world manages.

Pilots are the peak version of this

[-] blargh513@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 hours ago

I'm a corporate goober, fully institutionalized. I know no other life.

The notion of part time seems so absurd. I'm not saying it is wrong or bad, but just so puzzling, like a concrete life preserver.

I would love to work part time, but nobody would hire a part time cybersecurity leader. The effort it would take to make that institutional change to job sharing would be tremendous. It would just be easier to hire someone else for a little more money.

Actually I know some people …. Depending on what you do for cybersecurity. There’s a good market for contractors to do security audits and pen testing - as a contractor you potentially have time off between gigs and can choose how much you work (assuming you can pull in the contracts)

Imagine being the guy …. The next big supply chain attack, the business is on the line, and they call you. The cybersecurity expert: your word is god’s word, no budget too big when the company is on the line

Oh no they don't! If they want to force me to work with guns, I'm fine with that.

They will have a few grunts less.

Start working on a cruise ship where you don't need a house.
