I feel sure there must be many of you out there who wonder how we all cope being carers and working full time.
Firstly, may I say that I love my job. That has not always been the case. Not because of the job but because of my boss. Fortunately, I am now extremely lucky as I have a good boss who is extremely understanding if, for instance, I have to take time off at short notice.
I try to make sure I do my work well so my boss will not have cause for concern and I have to say I am good at my job.
How do you deal with the feelings of guilt at leaving mum everyday?
How do you deal with sorting things out for the person you care for? Sometimes there is an issue to resolve or something to sort and you have to make a call or send an e-mail during my working day. I will not rest until I have solved it. What I wish I could do is compartmentalise things and set aside a specifc time to do this sort of things but I cannot seem to do it. How do you all manage?
