[quote=Anonymous]Take the job. Especially since you are unemployed. If you are a federal employee (versus a contractor) the benefits outweighs the risk. As many people have stated, you can get advanced sick leave. If you start when you are 5 months pregnant, and deliver near your due date, you will work 10 or 11 pay periods which means that you will have accrued about 40 hours of sick leave and 40 hours of annual leave. This will only give you two weeks off. The rest will have to come from advanced leave or leave without pay. There is a way to mix leave and leave without pay up so that you're still in work status and will continue to receive leave and medical benefits while you are out of the office. Also, if you need a clearance it may take 6 months-1 year to get a full-out clearance but most agencies will give you a provisional clearance in the meantime. Meaning that it should not take you 6-12 months to come on board. [/quote]
