&gt; single mother who walks in the door at 9 am sharp and is pulling out of the parking lot at 5<p>I&#x27;m Dad and I pick my kids up at school at 3:15. I will leave at 3:05 and I will do work at home if necessary. My problem is other people are clearly more valuable to the bottom line of &quot;Getting their Work Done.&quot; I didn&#x27;t marry till I was 33 and I was always the MVP. After being married I can&#x27;t just sleep and eat a project till it gets done anymore. Heck I would pull two all nighters a month just to know everything was done.<p>Right now I am in the point of life where my experience and core values are my value to the job. Thankfully I am in a place where those matter to my employers.
