Sorry girls I just need to rant about my stupid job! We have a girl in the office who's leaving for personal reasons and she is in charge of doing this payroll system online that is full of issues. Nobody in the office wants to deal with it. And since I'm the only other female left in the office I'm now stuck with it. They had a meeting on Friday with everyone, including some guy who was just helping out. I've always been included and now all of a sudden I'm not. And now they're pawning the crappy stressful job onto me. Even though I'm leaving on vacation for 10 days and then about 2 months later I'll be leaving as well. Stupid if you ask me. Why wouldn't someone who's going to be here for good take it over?? I'm so upset that I just want to cry! I'm tempted to leave early on Mat leave cause I'm not going back to work anyways. Sorry so long. Just needed to vent. Thanks girls.

:-( That does sound crappy. I think I would probably be tempted to leave early if I were you too.

So sorry you are dealing with that. If finances allowed for it, I would leave to. I had something similar happen with me. I worked in a small financial services office and was the office manager and it was just me and two agents. (Luckily I had no boss. Just the owner who was a big pain.) Well, stuff started happening between the two owners and one of them wound up wiping out the company bank account. So I was left with figuring out which bills needed to be paid and how they would get paid. In the meantime, my mother in law and grandparents alternated watching DD (this was when she was a baby) and I really was getting uncomfortable with how they were doing things. My cat got real sick and I had to take him to the vet and wound up getting held up there longer than expected. My mother in law called, cussing at me because she said DD was screaming and crying because the wanted a bottle, but there were no more bottles left. So, DH had to leave work and go get DD. Come to find out, my mother in law had a can of formula but she didn't want to open it because she felt it would be wasting it. (So basically she refused to feed our DD.) On my way home, I heard a song called, "There's Gotta be Something More," and that was my sign that I should quit. I told the owner the next day I was turning in my 2 weeks notice. They went ahead and let me quit that day and paid me for 2 more weeks. It was the best decision I ever made!

If finances would allow it I would leave too. I mean my job is interesting, and challenging, but it can be a bit of a stressor too. Quite a big stressor really, its a sales job so results are the only thing that count..effort doesn't!

With the Canadian mat leave, you can start it up to 17 weeks before your due date (and still have the 35 weeks of parental leave after that) ....
As others mention, I would love to have the finances to not work -- but, no such luck! Even with taking a year off, it's going to be a tight, tight budget.

Oh wow that definitely sounds cruddy. If it is something you really want to do and can afford to do, then why not leave now? I just left my job because of a similar situation and it was becoming too hard on DF and the kids. GL hun!
