Fellow consulting dads who travel for work. What back you care plans do you have? Our 2.5 year old is normally in school but due to covid they’ve had to send kids home. If I weren’t traveling my wife and I could tag team but as my group begins to travel more I am wondering what others do as a back up plan. Thanks!

I’m the backup. Kid has been sick with COVID all week and I canceled my travel plans to provide care while working the odd hours.

I’ve had to have the conversation with my manager and have to accept that my performance and speed of promotion is not the priority — my family and wife is the priority.
