[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We stagger telework days and hours, and we only have one kid. He does four things outside school, although two are after school at the school so theoretically only pickup is required that day. Except I am physically involved in half of those activities (coaching, or otherwise volunteering in a hands-on way). And remotely involved in a third (administrative volunteer). I am exhausted. I think all parents are exhausted.[/quote] I forgot to add that like a previous poster, both DH and I are fairly senior in our organizations and have long careers of delivering results. This buys a lot of flexibility. Also, we’re both the ones who are always there for the inevitable Friday afternoon or holiday weekend crisis. We’ve both been called back from PTO (not at the same time) when stuff blows up. If you are this person, your boss really doesn’t care when you log off 4 pm on a Monday.[/quote]
