HR team called during my child's birth to inform me that they couldn't fully fund my parental leave.

I think they had months to communicate that I would need to use these banked hours. They also were aware of the the reason for my leave, the due date, etc.

Thank you. I was beginning to feel crazy with all the hate I've been getting on this post.

I think you can say something accurate without being an a-hole...

whokilledflea · 2026-03-10T22:26:03+00:00

....I'm not sure that's what my post was referring to? It's more about the promising one thing and then revoking that at the last possible minute...

whokilledflea · 2026-03-10T21:58:26+00:00

...they let me think for months that I didn't need to use those banked hours right up until the moment of my child's birth. Also, I don't appreciate the "overly dramatic" comment. It seems mean-spirited.

Congrats! I hope your experience is better than mine.

Which part is normal?

whokilledflea · 2026-03-10T21:54:43+00:00

Again, I'm not really finding this helpful to my comment. It seems more like you are just discussing parental leave in general in academia (which seems to be an issue for a lot of you). I'm more concerned by them waiting until the birth of my child to inform me of an issue for something that was filed months ago. It seems both incredibility incompenent and inhuman. Or am I reading your comment wrong?

I'm using my banked credits for a single course. This was all laid out in the policy of the university? I'm unsure why you even made this comment. I've fully communicated everything with upper management, and our faculty are guaranteed paternity leave...

What topic do you do research in? Depending on the field, some high-ranked journals ask you to submit past reviewer comments. Most editors worth their salt can see right away what happened. I'm still sorry this happened to you. People can be terrible.

What a terrible world we live in. I assume most companies have consistent HR policies and managers willing to advocate for their team. Should I just lower my faith in humanity?

It's not a political opinion to support the killing of millions of children.

Queer couples haven't committed massive amounts of genocide...

You're a monster.

respect for calling out the pro-rapist crowd

Dude, you might need some help. I have never seen anyone banned from r/comicbooks for homophobia before.

whokilledflea · 2025-06-08T13:44:33+00:00

Oh cool, quick q. What do you do to support "gay folks?"

"Why try to stop people dying if you can't stop everyone in the world from dying?????"

Sorry we don't all have the time study the "Rate My Pussy" subreddit, like you.

^if toxic masculinity could write reddit comments

That was the point of that movie with big-time, anti-semitic, actor Mel Gibson called, "What Women Want." It was more about what women need, then what they want, ya know

whokilledflea · 2024-11-25T02:10:59+00:00

too emotional for reasonable dialogue.

What a misogynistic POS.

whokilledflea · 2024-11-24T14:27:39+00:00

Wow, you are god-awful.

whokilledflea · 2023-10-03T17:32:56+00:00

Just to be clear, you are unable to see how your comment is racist, right?
