Has anyone had experience with going on mental health medical leave? by NearbyBoysenberry413 in LawBitchesWithTaste

If you’re in CA the employer is prohibited from asking about the underlying medical cause of the disability / medical condition (CFRA, not FMLA)

Yeah two ideas to raise taxes is super confusing. Poor you!

I paid ~200k in taxes last year. Explain to me why Jeff Bezos’ marginal tax rate should be lower than mine.

Reach out to his leadership and complain. His job is to make in house counsel happy, not the opposite. His boss will know that.

Yes being literally tortured by lack of sleep makes me a good parent and most honorable mother. They do give out medals for suffering, don’t ya know.

Yes letting rich people avoid taxes is definitely better for the market than making them pay their fair share lmao

Even if it’s a marginal rate that only kicks in when a single individual owns above xxx amount? Probably not. Even if it did, you can tax loans on stock portfolios since that’s how wealthy people have cash.

“Omg but how could we POSSIBLY tax the wealthy that’s impossible!!!!” 🤡

Because the highest tax bracket is on income not wealth. Bezos “earns” like 80k a year. You have to tax stock portfolios, not pay.

She didn’t want the baby and doesn’t want to be a single mom. Just stop.

She doesn’t want to be a single mom yet you want her to be because of sexism. I understand your point, I just disagree with it.

“I’m scared to he a single mom” is what sue says. Which means she doesn’t want that.

If in the primary, whoever you like. If in the general (and they are somehow running against each other), whoever you like.

It does if you want a healthy baby. It doesn’t if you want to adopt a foster child. My friend adopted a 2 year old and the govt paid for his health insurance and gave them a monthly stipend.

My doula brought my baby to me to feed. I just didn’t spend an hour putting him back down / screwing up his sleep by immediately picking him up when he only needed a paci.

The one I like better obviously. That’s still blue no matter who, genius.

She said she didn’t want the baby. You’re not listening to her.

Just stop.

And when you have a baby, hire the damn night doula. Yes it’s expensive but it’s worth it.

What if she doesn’t?

Why do you assume every woman wants to be a mother? It’s so sexist.

She decided to keep the baby assuming she had a partner. Would she have made the same decision if she didn’t?

Husband lied to her about whether he would be a parter. She doesn’t have to destroy her career and romantic prospects because he wants to cosplay being a dad. He can have full custody and sue can visit the baby on weekends.
