FMLA

I guess since nowadays we are used to seeing so many different deductions on our paychecks that most did not pay attention to a new on that debuted last year. We are now all paying into an employee funded program that will allow up to six weeks or forty two days if you choose to take it that way of (reduced) paid leave. Naturally, since it's something that was put together at the state level and uploaded to their web site it should not come as a surprise to find that it's clear as mud.

They say if you are going to take the leave in day increments NOT to fill it out until the leave starts, but then on the same page they want you to fill in all the time you took and will take. That works if you are incredibly psychic or you just get that "vibe", otherwise it's a real nuisance to figure out. I'm sure (no offense to my attorney friends) there must be people who now specialize in FMLA, but I don't think even they can tell us what days I'll need to take.

All that aside, we'll figure it out when we need to.

No improvement yet on Chris's left vocal chord but the ENT promised to call me back once he had some answers on what we can do to treat it.
