Job One: Getting to a child's game

Here's my latest post on BusinessWeek's "Working Parents" blog. I'm writing about the great escapes that parents make from their jobs - slipping away at 5 o'clock, cutting short a business trip - to attend their kids' sports games. I mention my own dad and the amusing things he did to get to the Little League field on time. Check out the NPR story referred to in the post, in which I interview my dad about the years in which he dashed from work to play.
