not part time but I did go internal and got a 100% remote job which made everything at home with kids so much easier

OP, I’m almost in the same exact spot as you. 2.5 year old and 1 year old, working fully remote and the hours vary from 45-75 a week (probably 60 hours on a normal week) 😭. Definitely not sustainable long term, curious how others are managing.

Yes, as a freelancer. I only take on part time gigs if they’re long. For shorter gigs open to FT.

I’m open to it but so far no bites

Today I messed up doing a delivery. The client was expecting the supplies at 3pm in the warehouse, however, there was an accident on the highway and traffic was insane. It slipped my mind to let them know about the delay. Now, they believe it was me being irresponsible and are threatening to fire me for not reporting on time and possible losing them a client. What can I do to fix the situation?
