You generally (it depends by country) don't get paid anymore between 6 and 12 months. But you still have a job. So when they get tired of using her womb like clown car, they could back to work.
Also is usually (again varies by country) shared parental leave. So between both parents up to the maximum allowance.
That’s a good point, but for Sweden, it is indeed 480 paid days. It’s a government calculation related to your income and there is a point (after 390 days) where it drops to the minimum payout, but it is still paid leave.
There are also government-mandated options in Sweden to receive a slightly lower pay in exchange for working fewer hours. I don’t have the exact details here, but it’s something like 75% pay for 75% hours.
Pretty incredible coverage for new parents in that specific country.
This article has a great summary for a lot of European countries’ parental leave laws. And yeah, quite a few are less than a year of paid leave:
Canadian here. I signed a contract with 4weeks of vacation that was changed to 'unlimited' this year. So far I've taken 5 weeks and have a 6th week approved in November.
I haven't used any sick days but they're unlimited. If you take more than 3 in a row, you need a doctors note.
15 weeks parental leave that can be split between partners (father can use none/some/all to look after child while mother goes back to work)
My state now has mandatory parental leave, about a year after me and my wife had decided that we didn't want more kids. Oh well. At least people in the future will benefit.
Even if I were it wouldn't apply in this case. Having a society with programs like this in place helps everyone even indirectly. I am fine with greed as long as it goes beyond basic right in front of you.
We all benefit from a better world. Sure some more than others but all at least some.
So I get rid of the land border with France, but in exchange I get a land border with USA - possibly the only worse country.
Also we lose Sicily and their awesome food and women but we get to keep Sardinia, where the best food is cheese with worms and the best women are one meter tall with moustache.
Nah most of the bible belt are baptists, evangelicals, and people who don't even believe in Christianity but use it as a cover for their fascist bullshit. There is no universe where they would get along with Catholics. Having them be that close to the Catholics would probably result in another protestant vs catholic war.
US Catholics have adapted a lot of the beliefs from the protestant-oriented groups in the US. Try asking Paul Ryan or Rick Santorum if they accept the Vatican's official stance on evolution and watch them squirm. Having the Vatican be right there would be . . . difficult.
Being in the EU is like the one good part of the Italian government, if you take that out I guarantee we’ll somehow manage to be even worse neighbors than Florida
What part is confusing? They have cockroaches capable of flight. I am still an atheist but if you made me submit a list of arguments for the existence of Satan this would be a bullet point.
White text on a black background reading "I have a plan"
Below the text is two images, the one on the left is of the southeastern coast of America with Italy and Cuba in the location of Florida and its Keys, and the image on the right is that of southern and western Europe with Florida and its Keys in the location of Italy and Cuba.

I noticed that after my first comment. The only plausible explanation I can think of is, FLNC wanted to blow up another villa, but they went way over the top with the explosive and blew the whole island up.
That would be awesome.. A Mecca for rednecks/Republicans replaced by walkable cities, a nice countryside, vibrant communities, lovely cafes, and awesome pizza.
When does the work begin lol
Because it's not news until a catastrophic eruption is imminent, I guess? Same reason geological stuff isn't an issue in west coast American newspapers.
Because it's mostly hyped in pseudo scientific news. Yes it's a super vulcano, there will be some evacuations happening. But no, there will not be a super eruption.
I guess with the lower temperature they'd be less of a threat.
Only for the short term, they'll adapt and be stronger than ever
And don’t forget, these aren’t normal gators…
These are meth-fueled Florida gators who are as likely to ban books as they are maul a skier.
The Alps won’t know what hit ‘em.
Then I'd be an E.U. citizen? Fuck yeah! Give me two months of vacation!
My condolences, but Florida immediately voted for Flexit
NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo!
I bet they would if you called it that
But wait, there's more! Order now and we'll throw in the Flexit sleeveless shirt, our patented DIY home tattoo kit, and a 6-week supply of bath salts!
Watch them join the british commonwealth to help them cope with the decision
Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
People in America and Japan… “‘only’ 5 weeks?!”

Don't forget we don't have a limited amount of days were allowed to be sick either.
So, 5 weeks more than we get! That sounds amazing!

At least youre not the type to try to stop something because you missed the window on benefitting from it
Even if I were it wouldn't apply in this case. Having a society with programs like this in place helps everyone even indirectly. I am fine with greed as long as it goes beyond basic right in front of you.

We don't have 2 months vacation..
Or hyperbole, apparently :(
Four weeks, two months, whatever, they're both still infinitely more than Americans are guaranteed, which is zero.
reeeeeee you hate America!!!!!!!!!
I always figured it was just Gallowbob again lol.
The mob would have a field day
Nah, the left Sicily where it was.
Italy has plenty of mob besides Sicily.
So I get rid of the land border with France, but in exchange I get a land border with USA - possibly the only worse country.
Also we lose Sicily and their awesome food and women but we get to keep Sardinia, where the best food is cheese with worms and the best women are one meter tall with moustache.
Bad deal man.
And remember you get a border with the worst part of the USA, even better!
At least there's no Corsica anymore (Sardinia but Fr*nch 🤢)
Fam, corsicans are the only ones who hate French more than us, they are welcome to rejoin Italy whenever they want.
We're not going to go to all that trouble just to keep the damn place. You get the worst of both worlds: French Floridians!
Sooo... New Orleans?
As a effectively Canadian that just moved to Florida zis is tri bone non
Knowing very little about the two islands, I find the contrasting descriptions hilarious.
And don’t you wish you kept knowing very little? Instead… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_martzu
Putting the Vatican below the Bible belt is going to be a disaster
Nah most of the bible belt are baptists, evangelicals, and people who don't even believe in Christianity but use it as a cover for their fascist bullshit. There is no universe where they would get along with Catholics. Having them be that close to the Catholics would probably result in another protestant vs catholic war.
US Catholics have adapted a lot of the beliefs from the protestant-oriented groups in the US. Try asking Paul Ryan or Rick Santorum if they accept the Vatican's official stance on evolution and watch them squirm. Having the Vatican be right there would be . . . difficult.
It would still be a disaster what ever happens. I never said them getting along would cause said disaster
Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius.
Nah not really, the catholic church loves going below the belt
Well, the Italian government is going full-on neo-fascist, so it'd probably be a wash, but the food would be so much better!
I'm into it, and I can see mexico and Cuba being into it as well.
NO GOD PLEASE NO
Being in the EU is like the one good part of the Italian government, if you take that out I guarantee we’ll somehow manage to be even worse neighbors than Florida
Likewise. Having trump and orban derail EU together is my worst nightmare. Please, keep an eye on your Florida. Don't let it sh1t in my backyard.
Counterpoint: I want authentic Italian food
Then come to Italy (or rather: go to France or Austria near the border so you can enjoy Italian food without actually dealing with living in Italy)
I live in Georgia USA I've been to FL way too many times Europe doesn't deserve this.
It's amazing how quickly it turns to shit on I-75 S when you cross the border. You can just feel the nastiness.
Meth production triples in Europe in just weeks of Florida's arrival!
NOBODY wants Florida.
I grew up in FL and now live in pacific northwest, still not far enough away....
I've never been to Florida. Just the right amount of times
As someone who lives very close to the new florida location I REALLY don't want florida
Trade Offer:
You receive: Alligators, Meth
You Give: Debt, Mafia
No one is happy. That is how you know you have reached a compromise.

No
Why is Italy a penis?
Florida attached to Europe looks mildly like a penis.
Florida
attached to Europelooks mildly like a penis.Florida
attached to Europelooksmildlylike a penis.You might want to get that checked out
Sweden and Finland are literally a penis, balls included
We don't need that, we already have Scandinavia.
Yes, because the food would be better.
Fuck you, we're not giving you Italy!
I really don't know who the biggest losers are in that trade.
Europe. Florida has flying cockroaches.
What part is confusing? They have cockroaches capable of flight. I am still an atheist but if you made me submit a list of arguments for the existence of Satan this would be a bullet point.
Satan punishes bad things, God creates them
Europe, Italy has some of the best food
Europe, losing part of the mountains will hurt water and weather
Definitely Sicily, they get wiped out in this plan... .
Yes! I don't want Florida in europe!

good human
Thank you, fellow human 🤖
Corsica is part of France. But then it begs the question: why did Sardinia moved and not Sicily?
Because we are way better than Mediterranean mexico
Because Americans dont know shit about geography.
As soon as it is more complex than straight lines and squares, they get confuse.
That was the first thing I wondered. Where tf did Sicily go.. with its huge Etna vulcano..
I noticed that after my first comment. The only plausible explanation I can think of is, FLNC wanted to blow up another villa, but they went way over the top with the explosive and blew the whole island up.
That would be awesome.. A Mecca for rednecks/Republicans replaced by walkable cities, a nice countryside, vibrant communities, lovely cafes, and awesome pizza. When does the work begin lol
You take Italy and we sink Florida in the Atlantic. Then it's a deal
Yeah, but the Balkans have enough problems already and don't need that shit.
Maybe make it an island?!
Florida is already attaching floaties to their beaches. It'll be on the way soon!
Well thank you, but no thank you.
We got enough conservatives as it is.
Sincerely
Your would-be neighbour
This is applicable to both of them, WTF.
Well you see, Florida would have to adapt to EU rules or lose all the EU funding.
And we don't tolerate POS like DeSantis.
So give it time, and it will all settle like it is now.
You say that, but Berlusconi was Prime Minister of Italy for a long time.
now you're making us deal with that shithole
Not Italian.
Also, if you don't know how to do things properly don't complain about it
Vinegar is great. Not my fault you can't handle it
It's not my fault your taste buds have the maturity of those of a 3 year old
Texas turns a profit.
Until it gets chilly and the power grid shits itself.
Just factual. Texas pays more taxes than it receives back from the Fed. One of the few states that does.
Corsica is now under the sea
Have to crack some eggs if you want an omelete.
Omelette du fromage
Didi!!
As someone that lives in Florida, would we go over to Europe or do we stay here in the new Italian location?
Some weird choices there with Sardinia and Sicily
And Corsica just vanishes
It's the perfect plan
An absolute downgrade. No sane person would ever want Fl*rida to replace Italy
I mean if that means Italy would be closer to me, and florida much much further away I think that would make me sane to want to switch.
And you move that shithole to our continent
Dump it in the middle of the pacific?
No, send it straight back to hell, where it belongs
just deleting florida would be better
This made me realize that Florida is a penis.
What if you take them off and forget to put them back?
(Sorry for the affected... maybe)
Maybe we just stick them together in the middle of the Atlantic?
The best plan.
They’ve already got the sinking spirit of Atlantis going.
now "the florida man who went to malta" will change from a skit into a newspaper headline
No one would be able to tell politically but the food would definitely be different.
Italy going from just a boot, to a boot about to kick Cuba's ass.
TIL that Florida is basically the same size as Italy. Weird.
But oddly Italy is a much more attractive land mass. Florida just looks like a limp dick
Complete with jap's eye.
There's got to be a better term dude
I'm not speaking for him but you've clearly not been to the UK
But italy has a population 3 times higher. And its a place where you actually would want to stay.
"basically"
From my rudimentary looking at a map the US would get tiny Italians and we would get 2.5 if not 3m tall Floridians.
This sort of thing always makes me think of this Bugs Bunny scene

Gonna find out how much crossover there really is between romance languages.
Have fun with the Campi Flegrei
Why is a shitpost like this the first time I'm reading of this. Why isn't this an issue in european newspapers?
Because it's not news until a catastrophic eruption is imminent, I guess? Same reason geological stuff isn't an issue in west coast American newspapers.
Because it's mostly hyped in pseudo scientific news. Yes it's a super vulcano, there will be some evacuations happening. But no, there will not be a super eruption.
Just like flushing America’s toilet
@The_Picard_Maneuver Finally, some good food in Florida that isn't Cuban or Caribbean 😅
Something something Georgia
That's one way for Giorno to appear in Stone Ocean
I was about to say that florida can keep their fascist regime, then i remembered that italy is going for a second round as well, so...
If we need to take Florida, I want Cuba in the Mediterranean Sea as well.
From America’s wang to Vera Wang in one easy step.
Probably.
But since Sardinia seems to have folloewd Italy to the Americas and Corsica looks like it vanished, could we get Cuba in their place?
I accept your offer
Looks more phalic
I love how Sicily doesn't follow the rest of the country
Why are you taking Sardinia, but not Sicilia
Maybe because Cuba gets in the way smh
Yes leave sicily behind fuck them
Oh damn. Please.
Neighbors in one will gain good pizza, what Mike the others… not so much
I like how italy looks like a boot in europe but it becomes a dick in USA
Why Florida looks like d***
I'll take that deal.
