[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She probably knew her situation was not going to be a valid reason for you OP, and that's why she was avoiding the conversation.

Now that she has told you the truth, it's telling that you won't give her a pass for a few years while letting the rest of the staff (who you said wanted to travel / present) do that job function.

Now I see why she didn't want to tell you. Absolutely no sympathy. And if this is a federal joy, it's not like she's probably being paid enough to work this out with hired help.

If I was your employee, I would be looking for a new job ASAP that didn't require travel. [/quote]

Exactly, she has a husband that is unwilling or unable to coordinate with the kids schedule. High school students often need transport to places, and to deprive them of activities and practice will literally affect their college acceptance. As a parent I don’t want my student bumming rides from other student drivers or taking a FIng Uber. That is really dangerous and expensive.

You don’t pay enough to hire a driver like many law parents do, so she is using the flexibility of her job to make it work.

I still don’t understand why you can’t have her present remotely — ship a satellite internet hot spot if these places are this remote. It’s probably cheaper than airfare and a hotel anyway.

You say she is one of the best employees — is presenting the only thing she does well, and now literally does nothing? Or she excels at other work and this facet has been neglected

Your pressure on her is causing her to look elsewhere Im sure, so you should come to terms for what you will lose when she is gone unless you backtrack with her. [/quote]

PP here - this post has to be a joke for how absolutely insane it is.
