Feeling overwhelmed? It could be the invisible labour.
2Let's say it's a Monday afternoon. There's a long list of chores that someone in your household will have to do eventually: Dinner needs cooking, the kids need homework help, a dentist appointment isn't going to make itself. Add a pandemic into the mix – having to find a suitable workspace, organizing Zoom calls from the garden while making sure the kids are out of sight, and the “don’t forget” list starts to get out of control. If you're the person picking up all of those chores, there's a term for that: invisible labour.
