Shouldn't have moved away I guess! (Although I'm done now anyway)

Yay, NY! Although I will miss this amazing benefit, I'm so happy that NY is moving forward!

@snowjewelz: looks like it's not just maternity leave. It's paid family leave, so also to care for ill children, parents, family members etc.

I am so excited!! Though, I'm in a public union, so we will have to opt in. I hope we do!

@regberadaisy: That's true! Tho I hope I won't have to use it for that reason!
