I'm guessing this post was inspired by the new policy announced today. Mothers and fathers both get 16 weeks of paid leave now.

Well EY with a serious game changer

like

Up to 18 weeks maternity (12 weeks maternity leave plus 6 weeks of parental leave) and I believe it's 8 weeks paternity (2 weeks paternity plus 6 weeks of parental leave).

like

Primary caregivers 12 weeks paid leave secondary care givers 3 weeks paid leave. Primary can be both parents as long as they put in 20 hours a week to care taking to they child

like

6 weeks

6 weeks for both moms and dads. Up to 6 months unpaid leave (granted your partner approves)

Primary caregiver 12 weeks, secondary 2 weeks, unlimited PTO, so I assume there is wiggle room

I believe moms may be eligible for short term disabilities and that is 24 weeks

@PWC 3 - I just came back from having a baby. We get 6 weeks after the birth (8 if C-Section) via STD and another 6 weeks via parental leave. So TOTAL 12 weeks paid. I used my vacation and unpaid leave to stay with the baby longer.

What are some side gigs people have done that they wouldn't pursue again today? Are there any you'd still go for, but would approach completely differently?

Thinking along the lines of:
- Platforms you'd keep away from
- Gigs that people have missed the boat on by now or instead that have just taken off only now
- Specific hustles that aren't worth the upfront cost/hassle in setting up or that are super hard to hire for
- Policies/attitudes you'd adopt going into things this time around

Working on a divorce where the father is claiming that he is unemployed because of the previous administration’s actions with DACA (he was brought to the States as a child). I know that the memo rescinding DACA was ultimately vacated—but OC is unsure whether this would count as voluntary unemployment for child support purposes. I believe it does as the application period to renew DACA benefits was reopened in 2020. Thoughts?

I find myself questioning basic politeness I’ve learned since a child. Wondering what everyone else thinks. I work with an associate. She’s great. When she does good work or something I’ve asked her to do, I, of course, say “thank you!” I don’t really expect a response. She always replies “you’re welcome!” Or some variation. And for some reason, that’s awkward. Is it just me? I know in normal manners, that is the right response. Why does it sit funny?

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭
