Am getting so pissed off with a fellow teaching colleague.
I went back full time after my first baby and now am on maternity leave waiting on dc2.
There is a colleague at work who had her first baby and came back to teaching 3 days, good for her, I'm happy. But the thing is, she goes on constantly about how amazing working part time is, how she just loves the time at home. Will randomly say in the staff room dotty I don't know how you do it! I could never work full time with a baby, blah! blah.
Well the long and short of it is, I can't afford to go to 2-3 days a week. My school are kindly letting me come back 4 days a week after this mat leave but as I'm the highest earner even that will be a stretch, doable but we will notice it.
It's every blooming day she goes on about it, it's really starting to annoy me. Mi would love to be 2-3 days a week but I just can't afford it.
Has anyone else ever experienced this? How do I deal with this annoying woman? It maybe sounds minor but is really bugging me, as yes, I'm a bit envious.
Help me feel like I'm not the only person that has to work full time with kids please!
