[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are making entirely too much effort here.  The go to answer, at least here, seems to be to demand that 100% telework be allowed until camps/schools reopen.[/quote]

100% telework doesn’t help with the fact that my 3 and 5 year old need to be supervised, fed, and kept busy.[/quote]

A thousand times, this. I can't be 100% on for work when I also need to be 100% on supervising my 3 year old. I'm lucky my work is being flexible about hours, so long as the work gets done. But DH? No, he works for a bank and they demand he be fully available for client calls from 8 am to 6 pm, no excuses. And the client calls are constant right now, as you might imagine for someone who does small business banking. That means I spend 8 to 6 attempting to juggle work and kid and making meals and general house stuff (poorly, I might add), scarf down dinner at 6:05 and then work until 11 pm or so when my brain just can't process anything any more. Every. Single. Day. And I'm supposed to do this for months?[/quote]

Yup. Join the club! [/quote]
