[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are ways you can make this work to keep your job, but it sounds like you don’t want to.

100 hours a year is only 2.5 hours a week (assuming 40-week school year).

Do you work full time or part time?  If full time, can you drop to 32 or 36 hours a week and then just volunteer at the school  one morning each week for a few hours?  If you work part time already, this volunteer requirement is nothing.

You drop off in the morning and then hire a nanny for the afternoon pick up & babysitting.  Get a nanny who can work on at least some of the days your daughter is off school so you don’t have to take them all off.  There is no reason your husband can’t take a few of the days off too.  I work for a 3-star admiral and he takes some leave.

We've tried the nanny thing when DD was a baby. Not fun in (another) small town! They aren't professionals and aren't very reliable.

Yes, I worked full time. Usually 7 am to 4 pm to cover our Europe office for a few hours in the morning. It was getting difficult anyway, and with the situation now, impossible. Boss was not ok with me shifting my hours later and/or going to a workshare/pt situation. I get it. He needs someone reliable too.[/quote]
