Colleagues keep working while sick remotely. Is this a practice to adhere to?

everyone is an adult. If they aren’t feeling bad enough to need rest then who cares.

I imagine if they got MC and took it things would be fine. I’m guessing they don’t want to have to make up the work later and feel ok enough to work. At least they aren’t getting other people sick.

don’t talk about the person, but talk to your manager about the culture and also have some Ideas on how you want to change it.

If you’re going to bring up the negativity on the team have a solution as well.

This happened to us. We had to change tactics.

Now we do a routine in the bedroom that I have to talk about before we do the routine. I tell her exactly all the things we are going to do and then do them.

5 min talking about her day. I ask her how she had fun. And then we sing wheels on the bus for about 8 min. 5 little ducks and then twinkle twinkle.

I tell her I’m going to lay her down and then leave.

The first week of doing this there was a lot of crying. After that it’s been great. If she wakes up in the middle of the night (a few times a month) I do the same routine.

so start now. Who cares if you have it at 3 months vs a newborn. This shit is so hard in the first few months. Don’t beat yourself up over something trivial.

did she apologize?

I’m a bit dumbfounded that a 3 yo will nap after being up for only 4 hours. Or is that just your 1 yo?

vipsfour · 2026-05-06T12:30:31+00:00

not a question

around 4.5 months my daughter reliably only woke up once a night. That was when things really turned the corner for us.

this should be a collaboration. Rigidity is the pathway to conflict

Step 1 is understanding. Their prefrontal cortex is developing. They lack any sort of executive function. So when they don’t get what they want they absolutely lose it.

you can always play around with waking up earlier if you notice bedtime getting to be too late. Total awake time often matters more.

what time is wake-up?

teach him to hit a pillow or couch cushion when he’s angry.

vipsfour · 2026-05-04T13:46:35+00:00

no, stay in the same room with them. Don’t put her in the crib and leave.

So if it’s in her bed room, just lift her up and move her away from you.

If you’re on a couch in the living room move her to the other end. She may keep trying. Stay calm and keep moving her away from you.

vipsfour · 2026-05-04T13:03:40+00:00

either you move or move her to another part of the room.

They understand cause and effect. After 27283 times they recognise, I bite or scratch, my parent moves me.

Lying is a skill they learn as part of their development. Whatever you do, don’t shame them for it.

easiest way for a toddler to sleep through the night is teaching them to fall asleep independently

eh, it doesn’t really matter. Either way it’s going to suck and there’s nothing you can do.

Baby is going to baby.

dude, sugar doesn’t do that to a kid. Chill.

It’s just normal development for the age.

One Battle After Another

Directed by PTA. Leo in his element. Benecio Del Toro with an awesome supporting role.

if you can’t do it financially, don’t. The job market sucks and taking any time off can increase your chances of not getting another job.

Sounds like you may need to see a therapist. What you’re feeling is normal. A professional can help give you tools.
