Guess it’s better than not having a job. Sure she’ll be back to 40 in a month. Large industry. Worldwide. Can’t wait for this to slow. Hold on everyone work will be plenty soon enough. Prayers to all affected

The same thing happened to my wife. They plan to have Saturday clinic once this passes to make up for lost revenue and lost wages for employees. We all need to tighten our belts and this too shall pass.

My wife got put on bed rest 3/16 and isn't due until 4/29.

No paycheck at all.

Mine is sitting 10 feet away talking to me as I listen to the radio, work and post, I have no idea what she's said for the past 15 minutes.

I work 5 am till 3 pm then she works 4 pm till 10 pm at the same desk (home).


This is such a pain in the arse

I would check on the legality of that situation. That would seem to fall under protection laws.

My wife got laid off 2 weeks ago. You could have it worse.

The main complaint I hear. "You never listen to anything I say."

Isn't this where one of the man bun wearing, basement dwelling OTers says, "You only have one desk? You must be a poor?"

Same here. She’s essential but it’s damn slow at the hospital right now.

FMLA protects one’s job, not their pay. Meaning it generally provides unpaid leave.

Assuming you were referring to FMLA.

Our company cut all of us to 32 hours last week. This is going to hurt for a little while.

Small business of about 50 employees.

First you don’t need pics just imagine an OT 5. Lol. But in her line I’m sure she’ll be back. Her company needs 91% revenue and at is 88%. Once work picks up they’ll be going
