I’ve never been rejected from any of my “dream” schools or jobs or even friend groups/social scenes that I’ve wanted to be a part of. So, yes, I’ll absolutely be messy as hell when I’m 60 years old and still don’t have the coping mechanisms to get over my insurance company rejecting my medication reimbursement request that I forgot I even filed.

Rejections/Failures are needed to become a better person and look at life from a different perspective. You may still be young, wait till you are 35+ when a lot of things change and you will look at life differently.
But if you are already at 35+, well thats good for you and be happy this is not a big rejection lol..

Is it a red flag as a candidate to ask if a company offers maternity leave? I was recently laid off, so I wasn't expecting to lose my job. We're planning on trying for a baby in the next year or so, so it's really important to me that my next job offers paid maternity leave.

The issue is that it's so rarely advertised on company web sites, but ultimately better maternity leave would sway my decision for a job. Is there a way to ask this tactfully? Or without raising red flags?
