I took them to the doctor today and got a certificate for carers leave for tomorrow.
I’m full WFH and tomorrow is like the one day a year event they want everyone to go to Marvel stadium for a bunch of pro work propaganda.
I may be having problems with my manager, but I might need to ride this out or find another fully remote role because I don’t know how days like this will work otherwise
There isn’t one answer that suits all families, someone has to give each time. We have grandmothers, but they’re both older and medically compromised so we don’t ask them to do the sick days, but they do help on school holidays. Luckily both our bosses are pretty understanding, and we share the load. But it’s a constant assessment every time, and we don’t judge each other as parents for it. It isn’t easy.
