I was so fucking pissed when I found out my husband wouldn't get any leave for our baby because he had recently changed jobs (no FMLA since he's under 12 months) and his new job is with a union (Yay)..... who is excluded from PFML since they haven't renegotiated for the last 6 or so years (areyoufuckingkiddingme!)
