As measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19), staggered commuting and the introduction of remote work have been promoted, and our lives have inevitably changed significantly. ..

In addition, not only my home but also many homes panic due to the request to close the school all over the country.

However, in the case of my home, there was room for both couples to choose remote work.
"Three rules for managing remote work & childcare life"
I enacted and challenged the compulsory work style reform that started ...

I realized that ideal remote work that actually utilized the rules was almost impossible to achieve.

The usual rules twisted to do the job
First of all, the nearest schoolchild was open, but both couples decided to take a day off if they were at home. This is because there are already infected people in the neighborhood, and I decided that if my child were infected, I would not be able to do remote work.

And since both the couple were scheduled to stay at home on the first day of remote life, the child was put on standby at home.

However, my husband suddenly came to work in the morning of the day. However, at this point, I had a light feeling that "it will be somehow".

As a matter of fact, I don't know that it will be a lot of trouble ...

The child who wakes up in the morning senses the strange atmosphere of society and asks us many times, "You don't have to go to school, right?" It's already shining your eyes.

In this way, remote work without her husband finally started.

Since there are days when I have to go to work, I write down whether I am at home or at work on my family calendar.

I just wanted to concentrate on my work in the morning, but the time passed just by giving up my homework and sending a fussful child to my desk saying, "I want to play games, I want to go play, I want to watch TV!" went.

After all, every time I solve one question, I get asked many times. "Games, TV, games!" I wasn't in a situation where I could work.

The telecan from 10:30 barely managed to keep quiet, but that was also gained by giving the kids game time.

But here is the problem. At my home, the rule was "the game is one hour a day", but in a blink of an eye, that time was used up, and the meeting was extended a little, so the game time was extended by 15 minutes. It's not yet 11:45 in the afternoon ...

While doing so, lunch was approaching, and this time I was asked, "I'm hungry! Rice! Let's eat together!"

I noticed my parent's ego
I was impatient while eating fried noodles for lunch with my child. After all, the only work I could do in the morning was to participate in Telecan.

It may sound exaggerated, but it really ended the morning.

I have experienced remote work several times in the past, but my child was entrusted to a nursery school or school child. Based on that environment, I want to curse myself who wrote the last time that I was in good shape, such as 3 rules for remote work operation.

When I was washing the dishes while thinking about that, a child with bright eyes hugged me, saying, "I want to make dessert!"

Yes, now my kid is crazy about desserts that put his own chopped fruit in yogurt. When I have time to spare, I also go out with them, but I was honest when I said, "Now."

And at the same time, I wanted to blame myself for not being able to go out with him. From a child's point of view, her mother, who shouldn't normally work, is at her home, but she wants to spoil her.

I want to rebuild somehow
On this day, I went out with my kid's yogurt making and homework (the schedule was significantly upset at this point), lifted the ban on tablets and games, and then resumed my work.

When I told the team that the work wasn't done yet, I was thankfully told, "OK, don't worry!" I really appreciate this privileged work environment.

Although the expected closing time has passed, I finally made a completion notice to the company and then went to call my son who was addicted to the game Zubuma and the day ended.

Needless to say, I ordered a delivery service.

Then, at night, she offered to her husband who came home, "I want to revise the rules."
