Re: Horrible maternity leave

Re: Horrible maternity leave

How could they? You're talking about millions of blue collar workers!

Maybe they have money for re-education but I'm willing to bet they don't; they're from all age groups, from all the states,...

Re: Horrible maternity leave

Saying that, I know someone who works for the "Local" electrical union in NYC and they do well, because all public...

Re: Horrible maternity leave
