Anecdotally, my manager has been a terrible human being after I took paternity leave at the height of Covid in NYC. I 100% sense the resentment. Not only has he been a disgusting person towards me, but my duties have shifted to India and I’m being assigned projects where I have 0 experience in.

I’ve been laid off from my current employer for taking parental leave before. So it’s not surprising that I’m being pushed out again.

FYI: labor laws in my situation are very much stacked against me, as usual.
