When People Are Really Suffering, And We

We're The Only Developed Country In The World That Doesn't Have Paid Maternity Leave. Paternity Leave Is Just As Important. Paid Family Medical Leave So That You Can Take Care Of A Parent, A Child, A Grandparent, Whatever You Need To Do. I Think We're Shortsighted When We Don't Invest In Our Employees As Companies, And As An Economy, Because We Invest In Them And They Invest Back In Us.

When People Are Really Suffering, And We Know They're Suffering, That Question Can Be A Very Difficult One. Inadvertently, I Think Without Anyone Meaning It, It Communicates A Lack Of Empathy.
