Long and short of it is that my Ds was sick at his CMs on Tuesday so can't have him for another 48hours so next day she can have him is Friday. Wife took 2 days off work whilst I work a 2 day conference, tomorrow we both have important meetings to attend in the afternoon, explained the situation to my boss and okayed working from home.
We rang everyone we could think of and none were available, so I rang my Dad, I don't know what I was thinking. He basically refused and said he would if he could but he can't cos he has work. I understand that but why couldn't he even notion the motion with his boss to see if they could work something out, I'm a manager myself and would hope employees having to deal with a situation like their GS being sick and being asked to babysit by their son or daughter would be perfectly reasonable to take a morning or day off work.. anyone else had to deal with a situation like this, were you annoyed at them or understanding?
