[quote=Anonymous]My son was a preemie and was in the NICU for the first 10 weeks of his life. After 4 weeks off, I agreed to work half days at the request of my grandboss - essentially 10-2:30 until my son was released from the hospital. After doing this for 2 weeks, my direct boss (who I later learned had objected) questioned me about whether the arrangement was necessary. His words still sting. "Why do you need to be at the hospital for half a day, it is not like you are a doctor. You cannot do anything. This whole thing is interfering with your job." I went on full maternity leave that following Monday. Funny thing is that his wife saw me at a company function (I guess he told her what he said to me) and she apologized to me in tears. Ironically, their first child was a preemie and he asked me to talk to his wife about it. [/quote]
