[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have lots of leave, but I usually still work when my kids are sick. Otherwise I just come back to mountains of work. Better to answer questions quickly before they become larger issues at work.[/quote] Yeah. By nature sick days are unexpected so there are no contingencies in place. If I can do a call from home while my sick kid is watching TV or napping, it makes sense to do it. Otherwise it has to get rescheduled, or someone covers but maybe doesn't have all the background, or other sub-optimal results. Most professionals I know would prefer to do that than disappear on a sick day and risk things going sideways. I will say, I think that is fundamentally different from having kids at home full-time without childcare while you WFH, which I don't think should be allowed.[/quote]
