[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two earner households. Lack of workplace flexibility. Plus, not to be heartless towards your child, but typical colds don’t typically affect other people in significant ways. I’m not staying home for a cold and neither will my kids. Fever - yes. Runny nose - no. [/quote] NP here. You are being heartless. Stop sending you kids to school with a cold! Stop going to work with a cold!! I’m glad they don’t bother you, but I also get knocked out by colds, and people like you drive me nuts. If you’re a waitress or something where you get no paid sick days and need to pay rent, okay. But if you get paid sick days, aren’t using all of them, and are coming in with a cold STOP. You are the problem this post is about!![/quote] I’m an attorney. I literally do not have enough sick days to cover my colds plus 1/2 of kids’ colds. So kids go to school with colds and I go to work with a cold. And that’s just the way it’s gonna be.[/quote]
