The debate has begun. I'm waiting for a final decision from my service manager, who said he was calling HR corporate yesterday (and also said he'd get back to me by cob yesterday - HA!). I called the RE today. They said for the IVF week, I should be off work the whole day of the procedure and at least the next day for bed rest - that's for each procedure (retrieval and then transfer back). So it looks like I will be off work at least 2 days that week (best case scenario), but as many as 4 days (worst case scenario as far - as the firm is concerned anyway).
The doctor said they would definately write a note for me to be off, but the boss is still unsure if they'd give me the sick time. It's a medical procedure dammit!! Let's see somebody put a needle thru their cervix and then into their ovaries and want to come back to work!! Boss asked how many days vacation I have left, just as a backup plan so I wouldn't have to stop plans for the IVF. HA! As if! I told him I'll take em unpaid if need be. I'm too deep into the process now to back off because of time off concerns. Bullshit! My family comes first!
I don't know why I'm even ranting about it. Mother Merrill will probably come back and say that as long as I have a doctor's note, it will be sick time. Time will tell.......
