Feeling like a failure
I feel like I'm a failure because when my son is born, I can't afford to take time off work. I originally got 2 weeks approved unpaid, but every time I try to get money saved, we have medical bills or something wants to break on the car. So I can't afford to take 2 weeks. Probably just a few days and then go back to work. I feel like I'm failing my fiancee with not being able to be there but we just don't have enough to make it through the few weeks I'd be gone from work even though I'm going to be keeping the bills paid and food on the table
