[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posts like this make me wonder what exactly our workers are doing during telework. It also leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I also will be sure to look at school days off and telework requests. I hope OP is honest with her employer on her work life balances.[/quote]

Yes, this is part of why we don't have a telework option - there is no way to deal effectively w/ those who abuse it without harming those who don't.[/quote]

Says the person who is apparently on DCUM during the work day....

My mom ran a business out of our home while we were growing up.  It took her twice as long to get her work done on days when we were home from school, but she got the damned work done, even if she had to stay up past midnight doing it, because that was how she put food in the table.  I see no reason to just assume that OP isn't getting her work done or assume that her boss doesn't know the situation for this particular day, especially since she already stated that she is planning on working more later to get done what didn't get done during the day.  And I don't see how it is that hard for a manager to see which of their employees are getting their work done and which ones are not.[/quote]

+10 bazillion

It's a crime if OP multi-tasks from home but it's totally OK for the hall monitors to spend the entire day on DCUM since they're in an office, right? Unbelievable.
