[quote=Anonymous]I am a small business owner who, more and more, is staffing my business with 1099 temporary contract workers, precisely to get around regulations such as this one. Anyone who thinks that it is reasonable to ask businesses to [i]provide you with 16+ weeks of paid leave, simply because you decide to pop out a kid[/i] is either 1) on welfare themselves; 2) still living at home with mommy and daddy, or has access to their trust fund, or 3) works for the government. News Flash, OP. You are not irreplaceable in the work force. I guarantee that if you quit tomorrow, your employer would have people lined up at the door within a week to take your job. Why in the world do you think someone else should pay to have dust cover your desk for 16 weeks, so that you can have your cake and eat it too? Your sense of entitlement is shocking.[/quote]
