    ByGuest Poster Hours Aug 3, 2016Jun 28, 2022

I reached out to her to ask for her top tips on negotiating reduced work hours and her own thoughts on the journey. Below, we present…

But there’s more than just the pictures, and I’m such a sentimentalist I want to memorialize and remember all of it: the quotes, the daily schedule, the obsessions of the moment,…

    ByKat Hours May 25, 2016Mar 8, 2019
    Comments 10 Comments

    Commenters on Corporette were just discussing how one mom should spend Memorial Day weekend with her husband and child away, and I thought this would make a great fantasy open thread over here. What would you do if you had an entire day (or 3) to yourself? Would you shop? Travel? Get together with friends? Spa it…
