Took a little over 6 months with my first (included vacation time + Unpaid leave) @ Manager level. Took a little over 4 months with my second @Senior Manager level (included vacation time). Note - this was before our current leave policy was instituted.

I took three of the four offered months at Consultant level

Took the full 4 months with the new policy.

I was at a friend’s. Her and her neighbors are all moms and get together for dinner while the kids play. A father showed up to drop off kid while the mom was busy elsewhere, instead of going about his plans he stayed with us. I felt so much sexual tension with him there its so weird. I was attracted to something about him and i know i had his attention. I could barely look him in the eyes when he would make conversation. I wanted to… you know what. SO WEIRD. Hes not even a 10! Im so confused.
