[quote=Anonymous]I travel for work more than DH, but when I'm in town I have more flexibility for telework than he does. We earn about the same. So when I'm in town, I tend to do more of the sick days, because I can call into any really important meetings or catch up on stuff at night. It's less of an impact on my job than it would be on his. But when I'm traveling, or have can't-miss events at work, he's 100% on it. I just have to let him know what those days are. I mark critical days on our joint calendar so he can plan around them. I wouldn't focus on "fair" so much as "I need to be at work on X, Y and Z days, can you help out if needed?" or "I can only afford to take another 2 days off this year before I'm out of paid leave".
