Two weeks off because of a tough delivery? Nice employer. I've worked for almost 35 years now and I've never heard of of an employee taking that much time off to be with his wife UNLESS there were MAJOR problems of some kind.
The other day we were told that Boobie would be back to play today. Now, he might not be back for tomorrow either? I find this all very strange stuff. It's now been the entire week for Gibson to be out.
A regular average joe wouldn't get this type of special treatment unless something serious was going on.
Actually its the law. You can take up to 3 months off when having kids. Your employer has no choice. Doesnt matter if you are the woman or the man. Its called the Family and Medical leave act of 1993. If you have more than 50 employees, they have to grant you the time off. So a regular average joe would get that time off too. Its not special treatment, its called not wanting the feds to come in and shut down your company for breaking labor laws. :chuckles:
