Forgot son in daycare. Also the son doesn't need to eat.
Only walked his dog once the whole day. Didn't seem to feed the dog either.
He himself only ate one meal (+ a snack) the whole day.
No workout/activity (aside from short dog walk).

Also he did 4 interviews from 9am to 1pm (1 per hour), but then 6 interviews from 3-8pm (1 per 50 minutes)... So either he spent 10 minutes too long on the morning interviews, or he shorted the afternoon candidates...
Either way, not optimized.

You don't understand, when we look for a partner, we specifically look for whoever provides the most money and spends the least amount of time with us.
We don't choose a partner for shared interests, companionship, romance, that hit of joy you get every morning when you wake up next to your best friend, etc.
No, no, it's all about the money, baby. Gotta make him grind so we can live cushy lives while cheating on him.

Not even! Dropping a child at daycare isn’t the same as spending time with a child. The dog got more one-on-one attention.

Doesn’t seem like the kid factors in either way

u/TheFoxer1 Apr 09 '26
That was not the point raised, the point raised was him forgetting his son at daycare.
And the kid factoring in is not the focus of the post, again, the most straightforward assumption here is that he has a partner or a nanny taking care of the kid while he is working.

Regardless, he spent literally zero time with the kid...?
I have an 18 month son, wfh, and see him every 20 minutes and full time watch him as soon as it is 5:00PM. No daycare no babysitter ever. I work in management consulting, at least 6 meetings a day and a ton of work.
This person literally gets rid of their kid at 8:30AM then does nothing to be a "father" the entire day. Fuck that, this is a failed parent.

The lady in the post is saying this to point out the fact that he wouldn't be able to do what he does if he didn't have a wife to do the things that he sees as below posting about. If he didn't have a wife picking up the slack for him he'd be cutting that workday off at 4:30 or 5:00 and not doing anything else "productive" until 9pm. Instead his wife does that for him.

The optimization mindset fails at parenting because children aren't a system you can iterate on. They're a system that iterates on you. Every attempt to optimize them is actually them optimizing your patience.

As a single father of two, those are rookie numbers. I don't see where you made supper, did laundry, gave your son a bath, brushed teeth, played, and read books.

People sure do seem to love to judge a person based on a single screenshot of them logging their days activity. Pretending like they know anything about this person and their motivations and patterns of behavior. We can’t even say for sure that this isn’t this person making a joke in reference to some other thing they’re responding to, yet still people are here talking about this as if it could only possibly have been intended as a 'flex' about their daily schedule, when there is nothing that actually indicates that in anyway beyond people’s predetermined biases.
