[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I hear people say they telework when they are sick or telework when kids are sick, I dont understand it. When I take a sick day I'm sick....meaning I cant work (at home or at work). And I dont know about anyone else's kid but working from home when my 4 year old is sick is impossible, I just go ahead an use leave. I applaud the person who was able to do it when their child was 2.5 - 3 years old. [/quote] this is not necessarily the case always... if I'm home sick w/ a lousy cold, the smart and considerate thing (for me & my co-workers) is to not go to the office and spread my germs around ... that doesn't mean that I can't get in anywhere from, e.g., 1-6 hrs. of work at home depending on how lousy I feel, if I choose to or have to. I may do neither and just take a full day of sick leave but it's not a foregone conclusion that I can't do any work. [/quote]
