[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking for advice on how to handle the following scenario. Generally in my office, women take 2-3 months of maternity leave. 6-8 weeks is paid. I'm the first to have requested and been approved to take 5 months. Extra time is unpaid. Since my colleagues have discovered this (as I prepare to go out), they have bern awful to me mostly. Pretty much everyone has told me they are pissed to have to cover extra time. That Im spoiled to be able to take this time. And so on from there....maybe 1-2 are fine about it. My boss obviously is too because I do a good job. Ignore this? Any other action I can take? It's honestly making me feel like quitting. I dread every day. [/quote] Women are so awful to each other. I'd try to ignore it an enjoy your leave. Figure out if you want to come back after. Also, remember that in EVERY other developed nation, moms get a year. The United States sucks. You enjoy your 5 months. [/quote]
