[quote=Anonymous]Just sharing because so many people can relate. I have a fairly flexible job. My 7yo is sick today. I worked from home. No problem. I also had my performance review. So my boss had JUST shared with me the two things I really need to work on in 2016, and it was my turn to express that I understand what she said and offer some ways I might do what she is suggesting (yadda yadda yadda) when my son bursts into my office hopping on one leg. He is smart enough to be quiet during the call, but I was trying to focus and sound semi intelligent while a goofy 7yo was literally jumping around me. This is part of why I will never have the success I would have if I weren't a parent (and the default parent who almost always takes on the sick kid, the school holiday, etc). That's it. This is real life. :-o My son is completely fine, of course. He's just.... seven. [/quote]
