[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amazes me that people have all these high powered jobs with great salary and benefits and can take weeks and weeks of vacation all around the world, and yet they can't take a day off to take care of a sick kid. Here's how we handle it: "Sorry, my kid's sick. I won't be in today."[/quote] I have one of those jobs, and the point you're forgetting is that most of us are working on those great trips. I generally work anywhere from 2 hours to 6 hours every day of vacation, plugging the work in where I can (nap time, early mornings, late at night, etc.). It's the same for when the kids are sick. You just clear your plate as much as you can, and keep working on things that cannot be pushed. [/quote]
