That is such a great question that it made me stop and re-think your entire post. I absolutely love that. I never have but I can envision someone who could do that out of necessity. If little Bobby Tables is a special needs child, to pick an example, and you have one chance to get him into a special school, I'm sure that at the end of your life you would not regret for one instance being less than a stellar employee that one day while you worked so hard to get Bobby into that school. I get it. I understand. Doesn't make me want to hire you but again: at the end of your life, what would you regret more: having slacked off for one day at work, or having ensured that your child got the best help/education he could at such a critical time?
