Shiiiit, she divorce-raped her own company! On one side it pisses me off. On the other hand, I kind of had to laugh. Damned if women generally won't be divorcing and shitting on just about every aspect of society. The decline continues.

When you interview them, it's illegal to ask them if they're pregnant or if they plan to get pregnant anytime soon. I've had three of them join the company at different times and within a year of being hired they all went out on maternity leave. Of course, they all said they'd be back so we kept their position open and either worked around it or hired a temp. As soon as their maternity leave was over every one of them bailed. It really sucks when you're a small company and struggling along.

It's ingrained in the fucking culture of society.

I just watched an episode of Big Bang Theory last week, and one of the female characters did EXACTLY this. The plot was that one of her friends accidentally let slip she was preggers and she was FURIOUS (at her friend) that she couldn't burn the company by being nominated for head of a huge project, and then ditching at the last second.

The though never even occurs to any of them that "hey, maybe this isn't in the best interest of the organization which clothes, feeds, and houses me and my family..."

It's literally every woman for themselves.

Women have no shame. They only care about themselves.

I'm a fan of leave policies (in the US they're isn't any and it's very stressful for both men and women). I don't think businesses should pay for that, it should be a mandatory insurance policy that works exactly like unemployment. I'm a fan of lower population, but if there are going to be western culture babies born I want them to get what they need.

Had a woman at a job do something similiar. She got the job as head of sales late in her pregnancy. Was in the job for a month before she went on six month maternity leave. When she got back worked for a few more weeks then went on extended sick leave. Then went she came back again gave her job notice and worked two more weeks.

Be me working at company. Was asked to specifically hire a woman into the development space (because it was all male and BEE quota's.). Sigh, anyway after 4 months of looking for a woman who could string 3 lines of code together, and barely pass our entrance test, hire this Indian girl.

First day of work the following month she tells me she is pregnant. Said she would be available for work for at least another 5 months... so sigh fuck it. Ok I cannot put her on any large projects, end up putting on her maintenance, and some minor data conversion work.

One month later, oh no's, the stress is to much... she can't work like this (ie, normal 8 hour day) while carrying a child. (BTW bullshit, I had a project manager previous company, who carried a child 9 months, never missed a day of work, had a c-section, came back to work 4 days later... yeah she was hardcore but proves my point.)

Luckily she fucked up her work visa, and I with the labor consultant dismissed her the following week. She still took us to court, we won the case, so luckily ended well.

Was never asked to hire based purely on gender again.
