 Even in the office parties, I would notice that after the candles are blown and the birthday song has been sung, the responsibility of distributing that cake, slicing it neatly, always fell on the women around. Have you noticed that too? I think it's because women do not seem to be able to get away from that caregiving responsibility, whether at home or in the office. They have to manage the children's homework, the food, looking after the elderly and also in between tuck in a little bit of that work. When I asked a male colleague what it felt like to work at home during the lockdown, he said it was like running a crash and elderly care and running the office all from that same room. On Mother's Day, that I wish that all this caregiving work at home gets distributed among the family members so that it leaves working mothers time to network, to travel, to attend a conference and add to their skills and everything that they need to do to pursue a rocking career. Happy Mother's Day.
