Real Modern Man

Here’s a little something I ran across a while back, which makes absolutely no sense to me at all: Womenomics: Write Your Own Rules for Success”

This collaboration between broadcasting powerhouses Shipman and Kay gives career women explicit permission to demand the balance that’s been missing in their lives. The authors assert that after decades of trying to outdo men or fighting the Mommy Wars in the office trenches of the 1980s and 1990s, women have gained enough corporate clout to start changing the workplace to suit their needs. Shipman and Kay review the depth of women’s influence as consumers and earners, maintaining that their power gives them the right and the ability to ask for flexibility in their work lives, to negotiate assertively and effectively, to say no and to give up the guilt associated with getting their needs met. Through Shipman and Kay’s own stories of struggling with demanding work and home lives and anecdotes from other working mothers, the authors make a convincing argument that with some mental and emotional effort, women can create their ideal work and home lives. Filled with pragmatic and optimistic steps, this book will inspire readers to set in motion a flexibility-driven business revolution that can benefit all women and men, families and workforces.

The problem is this…

While women may feel empowered to demand more benefits out of the workplace… more money, better benefits, fewer hours… (This is great! I’d like to do that too!)

…there is going to be someone else, man or woman, that would be grateful to have that same job. For less money. For less benefits. Working more hours.

Possibly in a different country.

Here’s the deal: I’m going to bust my tail no matter what. If that means working overtime, I’ve done it in the past and I’ll do it in the future.

We’ve been in a recession since 2007. 500,000 per month are losing their jobs. What am I missing here?

Beautiful woman on a date is thinking impure thoughts. Did she just see YOU walk in the door?
