I agree - truly experienced moms get that balancing kids and work is hard and we applaud those parents who are investing in reliable childcare so they can actually work. I’ve been burned at work by parents who are distracted trying to juggle kids and work for an extended period of time and don’t get that the solution is to invest in childcare.[/quote]

Ha- doesn’t get better back in the office.  I get burned by parents having to leave at 5pm on the dot to pick up their kids from daycare.  We often have meetings that go past that. They claim daycares close at 6 and kid has softball.  Seems like more nannies are needed.[/quote]
Yeah, if I’ve been at work since 8 am I’m not staying past 5. This is the type of rigidity that RTO creates. You need my @ss in the seat for 8 hours, that’s exactly what you are going to get. Schedule your ridiculous end of the day meeting for earlier. [/quote]

It’s fine. It’s not like you were working more hours than that at home anyway. You were just “flexing” your time as you like to say. No one actually believes this results in more work product.[/quote]
Well, it’s obviously not fine for the poster who is acting like he’s getting “burned” by parents who need to leave at 5 pm. The flexibility that would have allowed someone to participate in a 5 pm meeting is gone, so don’t be surprised when people aren’t willing to be flexible only when it suits your/the office’s needs.
