Hi Jittles,
In my submission, I left out the word *paid* maternity, *paid* paternity leave. You're dead on regarding FMLA's 12 week requirement, but it does not require it be paid.
Hey, I couldn't help but comment when I saw this Harvard Dean post - especially since it drew a comparison to the HP pre-texting spygate scandal.
I was one of the reporters HP targeted in this scandal, when I worked at CNET. They hired private investigators who hacked into my *PERSONAL* cell and home phone records to see who I was speaking with.
That's a big difference than what Harvard did. Unfortunately, employers are allowed to rifle through your company email - because it *is* their property you are using.
Now that I work at Dice, where we ask readers to feel free to send us tips on company layoffs and hirings, I'll say the same thing here as I do there: "please, please, please, use your personal email address and *not* your traceable company email."
Take care,
Dawn Kawamoto, Dice Associate Editor
