[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so sorry OP. People on this thread are heartless a-holes and you’re clearly doing the best you can. It’s hard taking leave but then still being required to work- but I get not wanting to let things slip through the cracks or to have your work fall on someone else’s plate. Backup care is expensive and not always an option for people, especially on educators salaries. So just know you’re not alone and it sucks, but don’t be afraid to ask people at work that you trust for help. [/quote] Thank you!! I have been asking for references for extra back-up care. It’s hard. I don’t exactly made a ton as an educator, though more than my husband and especially including benefits. I’m also giving extra vitamins and masking my kids the rest of the winter. I spoke with my colleagues (similar roles as me in my district) today and it’s expected unfortunately to work A TON from home. This is still a shift for me as I was told that I shouldn’t have super late hours but maybe would need to work late or come in early maybe 1 hour a week…it seems like it could be HOURS extra and it’s expected to do that even while sick. I guess it is what it is. I don’t even get a 10 month contract like teachers, no I have an 11 month contract. If I had the full summer break, this would be a lot easier. [/quote]
