Should FMLA be more than 12 weeks? Why are Americans subject to cut off times for everything? Other countries would never! I feel like everyone should be able to stay out if medically necessary of course without the fear of losing their job. Especially if you are a seasoned worker!

I have agreed with this. I was out for a good bit of time for both of my kids to be born and I felt the stress of losing my job if I took too long or wanted more time with them. If anything, they should just say take all the time you need and have some sort of proof when you want to come back like a doctor's note or something.

Some companies actually respect their workers, especially long term employees. Some just don't care and it's sad to see that's a majority! :(

I have no idea and you'll never get it out of me.

Should I take more initiative? It’s my stub year and I’m getting worried. My hours have been super low the past two months, I’m talking like maybe billing 3-4 hours a day and billing no hours on multiple days. I ask for work but the tasks I get don’t require a lot of time. Should I be reaching out more?

My boyfriend and I make 200K combined and live in NJ. We have $1000 in monthly car payments combined. That’s all we owe. Our credit scores are in the 800s. We have 50K to put down on a home. We have done the math and I know we can afford much more but he doesn’t want to buy more than a 400K home. I’m almost positive we can afford 500K and be more than ok. But then he starts to talk about how much kids cost and how we will be house poor and we won’t be able to afford kids. 🤔 Am I insane??
