I can't get any work done with my kid around either. But the difference is not that I'm home instead of at the office. The difference is that she's at home instead of at school.
- jameshart 6y agoWhen kids go back to school some of the work from home conflicts will end, but kids still get home from school early afternoon, and schools typically only open 180 days a year - whereas most officeworking adults have to continue working into the late afternoon, and show up for about 240 days of the year. If you continue working from home after schools reopen, you're still going to have days like these lockdown times...
- mac01021 6y agoWell I'm fortunate to have a six-figure income and a job that affords a reasonable amount of flexibility. So throughout the school year I work 9-15:30 and then make up the last hour or two after my kid's bedtime. In the summer she can go to camp for hundreds of dollars per week and I keep a similar schedule. This summer, we're foregoing camp due to safety concerns.
