[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I handle it much more than DH does, but we go through the formality of looking at our schedules. For example, DS is coming down with a bad cold. Last night when we predicted it might keep him out today (remains to be seen...he's still sleeping) I said "Well, I could handle Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday this week but I'd need you to cover Wednesday starting at 3 and all of Friday." He said "I know I can't do Thursday so that should be fine." So if DS does end up staying home at all this week, we've already talked about who it is and it's me about 70% of the time. I'm ok with that. Does your DH help at all with this?[/quote] This is how we do it. I make only a little less than my husband, but end up taking most of the sick days because his job involves more external meetings than mine, so my schedule tends to be a little more forgiving. But we talk about it, and make a decision based on our work schedules. [/quote]
