[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember one day in maybe 2018 when our toddler was sick and my husband and I both had big presentations at work that would have been a big problem for each of us professionally to reschedule. Thankfully, his was in the morning and mine was in the afternoon.

He went to work, gave his presentation, took an uber home, I met him on the porch to hand off the baby and took the same uber to my office to give my presentation. I don’t know what we would have done if our presentations were at the same time.

We also swapped a sick baby on metro to allow both of us to work a half day.

In some ways I’m looking forward to returning to the days when I have to take a day off when my kid is sick. I’m pretty sure my employer is not looking forward to especially since 20% of my office was fired last week. [/quote]

I'm the hand waving poster from above, and yes, we definitely did half day kid swapping, too. I remember one day DH brought our older child to work around 11:00am and I picked her up at 12:00 to bring back home. It was certainly not ideal but she just sat in is office and watched a movie on his laptop while he worked. [/quote]
