Sorry the cobwebs and dust (sm)

on your womb is making you so bitter and hateful.  Obviously have never had to heal from childbirth and take care of a newborn child at the same time.  It takes time to heal just as it would in an illness or surgery.  She isn't getting preferential treatment because she is pg nor is she taking off to go on a vacation.  She is having a child.  Should all women of childbearing age just be banned from working just in case they might have to take a few weeks off down the road?  I bet the Indians would love that. 

It has to be pure bitterness and jealousy that makes you feel this way toward younger women.  Just makes you sound like an old, lonely bitty.

Sorry if I offended anyone w/my cobweb comment, it was only directed toward TTer, because of her hateful reply/issues.  My day is coming soon when my babymaker will be on permanent ice, too.  It will happen to all of us. 

My language might have been a little strong, but I have had 2 children while working in this business, and I just get fuming mad at people (like the PP) when someone acts like i am a lazy slob because I take a few weeks off to heal and baby bond.  You would think in this business where the workforce is probably close to 80% to 90% female, we would be a little more supportive of one another. 

My job doesn't suffer because I am a mother of small children.  In fact, it encourages me to work harder because I have someone to support other than myself, and it seems like on this board people think working mothers are just a boil on their potoots.  It is infuriating.  I have had nasty comments much like the one the PP made, and it just makes my blood boil. 

And to the OP, no company is allowed to discriminate because of pregnancy-it is ILLEGAL, and it doesn't matter how long/short you have worked for the company.  If they give you any grief (which I doubt they will) find an attorney. 

Two words to describe medical transcription these days. PAY CUT.
