[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would present it as a problem and a solution:

I need to leave at 5 every day for daycare pickup, so I will be back online again after 8 and will not need any formal lunch for the next 2 months until we get into a new daycare where the pick up can be later.

Or something of the sort that acknowledges
1. This is temporary 
2. You  know it's an issue
3. You have found solutions

Of course, if once you get the job and realize it's not an issue and is perfectly fine, then carry on with the boundary you have set.
The above applies if it's not the culture and meetings go late, everyone else stays, erc[/quote]

Smartest answer. You propose something you can live with, acknowledge it may cause issues, and sacrifice something to show you're serious.

As for me, I'm a single parent, I have to leave at 5:20, I do, and I got mommy tracked. But I get my work done and never miss a deadline. I also have someone to pick my child up in case I need to stay late for a legitimate, unavoidable reason, i.e., court runs long.[/quote]
