Quick question y’all — what should I (a guy) wear to my girlfriend’s law school graduation? I might meet her parents there for the first time at dinner also. Have never attended a graduation before so not sure. Thank you!

Thank you! So no need for a suit, right? I’ve outgrown the suit pants that fit me best 😂 is it kosher to wear my navy blue suit jacket as the blazer with a pair of nice black pants? I don’t own any blazers :/

Nope. Don’t mix blue and black. And typically, suit coats shouldn’t be worn as sport coats or blazers. There are some exceptions, of course

I have a governmental entity client in Texas that wants to offer 6 weeks of paid parental leave for all employees, even those who aren’t eligible for FMLA. After the paid 6 weeks, the employee can choose to continue paid leave using any accrued personal leave.

Texas does not have a paid parental leave statute.

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?

I work in a sucky IBM cic, making $54k. It’s a full time job with regular benefits and vacation etc, it’s working with government clients. The job isn’t what I applied for & constantly changes. I don’t like that, but I’m a full time employee which is “stable employment”. Btw, I’m in the DC area.

I just got hired for a government contract through Accenture for a Business Analyst role. Pay is $65 per hour. 3 year contract. Benefits too. No PTO. Holidays off with pay, after 90 days.

Thoughts?
