[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I often end up waiting at my kid's school.  My kid attends a school that's far from my home, but a few minutes from my work.  He doesn't qualify for a bus because he's not at his zoned school. He could take public transportation, but it's expensive!

So, in the morning he rides in with me and walks from my work to school, but in the afternoon, I finish the in office portion of my day about an hour before he's out.  I don't have an office where I can close the door, and if I stay past my end time, I end up fielding questions, or dealing with people who want to socialize, plus if I want to do something like call in a prescription, there's no privacy.  So, I head to my car, where I can do those things in peace.  It doesn't make sense to drive to a third destination, so often I'll just go ahead and drive to school, and sit there waiting with my engine off, and my laptop fired up.

I'm not wasting time, I've found an efficient way to deal with the situation.  [/quote]

While I agree you don't have a better option, that sounds really miserable. An hour every single school day??? Ugh. [/quote]
