I think I need to seriously consider looking for a new job because mine makes me feel miserable and undervalued way more often than I think is worthwhile.
My dad has stage 4 cancer and I’m his caretaker. We have no idea how long he has. I obviously wouldn’t disclose this during an interview process, but does anyone have advice re: how and when would be best to bring this up?
I’d feel hesitant to disclose anything that could count against me during a probationary period. I need a certain amount of flexibility to take him to and from appointments. Sometimes he has a few in a week. My current job is pretty flexible and as long as I get my work done that’s really all that matters, unless there’s something time-sensitive to tend to (this relative autonomy is part of why I’ve waffled about looking elsewhere—there are perks like this.) My manager knows about my situation and lets me do what I need to do. I’m in Canada, for reference. Thank you in advance.
