Stay at home dads by recession
The other day I read an interesting article about stay at home dads. The article is written by Tom Anderson who used to be a Internet video advertising executive but he lost his job and now takes care of his twin daughters. It’s an amazing story and I would advise anybody to read it, I love this part:
If this were the start of a new job, no problem. Day One: Meet the staff, attend a few meetings, lunch with the boss, work on a 30-day strategic plan, meet more staff, go home and sleep well, repeat all week. In the corporate world, you are given several weeks to deliver a product; in retail, you shadow a veteran employee in the field. As a stay-at-home dad — SAHD, an acronym that makes perfect sense now — the new customers are on the living room floor simultaneously screaming, filling their pants with last night’s sweet potato puree, pulling sharp objects from a side table, and trying to chew a power cord. At which point I want to wake up.
