[quote=Anonymous]It's definitely a myth in my field, especially considering perception is everything. My coworkers without kids sit in the office till 7 PM each night while I leave by 5, so they all look like they're working way harder than I am. However, once my kid is sleeping, I always get back online and do several hours' worth of work from home, so really I work just as many hours as everyone else... but it doesn't count because a) no one sees it, and b) I'm not available at all hours and can't dial in for last minute 7 PM proposal calls the way my single / childless counterparts do because I'm doing dinner and bedtime. It sucks but I'm also not about to give up my few hours with my child each night to get ahead... [/quote]
