[quote=Anonymous]the good news is my work has an on-site daycare with playground. the bad news is that my office is directly above it. so if i worked onsite, it would be 9 hours of infants crying and toddlers screaming in the background of all my calls. (the real problem for me is that now after having my own baby, i have a very visceral *OMG a baby is crying* reaction that no amount of logical "yes, but it's not MY baby" mental reminders can assuage, and I'm very glad I can be remote.) that said, I've been known to join calls with a sick baby on me rather than reschedule. I've got 12 weeks of leave I can dip into, so i'm perfectly happy to cancel our call and you can try again in three weeks when there's another opening on my calendar. Of course, odds are good that the baby will be sick again despite the $3000 a month I pay in childcare... feel free to just make your meeting an email, because i really have no need to talk to you, OP.[/quote]
