Solution: Put family events on the calendar in advance

Use one calendar for your work life and your personal life. That way, you can see all of your important dates and map out your schedule accordingly. And as you schedule, treat those family events just as you would any other important appointment. Often times, we take our families for granted because we know that they will be more understanding and forgiving than our employer. What we don’t always realize is that jobs come and go but family is forever.
