[quote=Anonymous]I am going to be generous and assume that OP isn't trying to be a jerk but that she just doesn't have many family or friends who have professional jobs (with responsibilities that don't end when the office closes). This means that a snow day isn't really a day off because you have to get the work done or make up for it some other time or be available to clients or other stakeholders. Both DH and I have jobs like this and we trade off taking an unexpected day with the kids if necessary but it's not ideal because it can mean giving up weekend the to make up for the lost time. Do I wish our jobs would allow us to both enjoy the snow days without work interruptions? Absolutely. But our salaries, benefits, and otherwise very flexible schedules that allow us to work from home and have flexible workdays is worth it. and despite our seeming neglectful ways during snow closings, we seem to spend plenty of time doing things with and for our kids, including coaching sports and PTA.
