[quote=Anonymous]We eat together as a family most days but don't eat until 7:30pm. Our kids are 8 and 5. Although we both could get home somewhat earlier (and did so in the past before we had a nanny) we both found this had negative consequences for us in our respective workplaces. Even if the workplaces say they are "flexible," really we both can see the difference in our superiors' attitude toward us now that we don't dash out the door at 5pm. (and yes, we are quite flexible ourselves and get back online in the evening as needed). BTW, both of us work in Fed workplaces (although I grant that neither the workplaces nor our very interesting jobs would be considered "typical" Fed and we both have mgmt responsibilities). [/quote]
