Let’s work from home when the kids are sick, thank you great company that I am allowed to slave away for you while taking care of my sick kid! It isn’t even a US company it seems.

Edit: guess I should have posted to unpopularopinions instead!

I just wanted to add I cut off the photo of the person on purpose. She is posting that with her sick child in her lap and that photo has been taken by some other person, not a selfie. If you are not feeling that the content of the post is bad, you hopefully still agree that presenting your sick child in an almost professionally looking photo to the world for LinkedIn clout is not great.

    My wife is unwell. I’ve taken her to the doctor’s. I’m sitting here now, on my laptop and working. Because I can and there is stuff I want done. She’s leaning into my shoulder, and I’m typing this. It’s good for her. It’s good for me. I see no issue with that article.

    That lady I’m sure could take the day off, but sick kids are pretty low maintenance. So why not get work done? The mother isn’t sick.
