Thank God I called HR!

So I call HR to coordinate my maternity leave and she says you know the company is changing its benfeits as of the 1/1/09. I said no, I didn't know that. They will no longer be paying 100% of your STD. (which is 6-8 weeks). They are going to pay 60% if employed under 5 yrs and 80% over 5. If yuohave the baby before the 1st of the year yu will be grandfathered in. She's like when are you due....I am due DECEMBER 31st!!!!!!!! I know I am very fortunate in that some companies pay nothing but this is my 3rd with this company and I was so shocked. I can't afford nor was I prepared for anything less than 100%. Needless to say, so much for having the first baby of the New Year! This baby better come meet his mommy a little early!

Wow, it's a good thing your company pays 100% and that you actually called to find out about this...

I'm hoping for labor vibes for you before the new year starts!
