[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom of two here.  I find it ridiculous that people wfh on a regular basis and are clearly taking care of children at the same time.  Suddenly they can't afford childcare even though they don't have to pump gas in the car for a daily commute? It's ridiculous.  I'm not talking about the one off snow day or sudden emergency but a regular pattern. Amazed employers haven't started creating policies around this or making employee come into work.  Classic example of fussing babies and children needing attention during virtual meetings.  Employees are taking advantage and double dipping.  Ridiculous. [/quote]

I think it's a mixed bag.

There are some who are working multiple jobs and minting money. Ping them and they will get back to you 4 hours later. 😬

There are some who are working honestly and also extra hours (like me) because I can never shut down!

There are some who are saving on child care like you said.

Everyone's situation is different. Personally I benefitted when I started working from home. I used to do my hair in the car while driving, skip breakfast and had back and neck problems. While working from home, I can get up stretch, look outside of the window for 60 seconds and get back to work again. It was awkward to stretch in the office.
