I seriously doubt any employer is going to give you paternity leave if the kid was born 6 months before you even started working there. Is this even a serious question?

funny

I think paternity leave comes from the government rather than the employer… If they really want you and have headhunted you then maybe they’d be willing to accept you as the person they’ll hire when your paternity leave is done. But I think it’d be a very rare case that they would hire someone going on paternity leave.

FMLA only applies if you've been with the company for a least a year. Also, it's worth noting that FMLA only guarantees UNPAID time off. Paid maternity/paternity leave is an employer benefit.

Today I was watching an old No Reservations episode, where Bourdain was talking about how the Khmer Rouge erased all prior history in Cambodia and made their regime start at Year Zero. There is an eerie parallel between this and what is going on with the Left today. What will happen to our country if everything is destroyed - first, statues; next, the history books; following this, people’s homes and livelihoods; and finally, death to people who don’t agree with the new regime.

Please, I need your opinion on this. I have 6 years of experience as a software developer and just finished my masters degree in data science. Now I am looking for a job here in the US.

They emailed me back saying that I am no longer in this process anymore with no further explanation and in Thanksgiving day. Is that normal?that email really got me very upset

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship.

I have a question, I got a contract role through a recruiter. Initially the recruiter offered the hourly pay rate which was the minimum in my range. Now I got an offer from the company. Now without me asking her she increased the hourly wage to the maximum range I asked. Which makes me doubt if the company increased it or she knew the rate all along but gave me the lower rate ?
