So I have been a PIC for few years and have a 2 yr old who gets sick from her daycare almost every other week. We got absolutely no help around us who can watch the kid while we work. My wife works part time but she can't also miss her work every now and then.
All this is happening when I was thinking about working for a retail chain ( more $$ of course). But the flexibility I get from working at an indie (coming in little later or working half day to take care of kid while wife works her half day) will not be paralleled, unless you can get sick days or such excuses from chains. Anyone in my boat who works for a chain or other establishments? How do/did you guys manage?
