Today, at work my boss told me I have been late, under-productive, and using up a lot of sick days. He says my job is on the line. My reason for barely showing up at work: I've been on maternity leave for 6 weeks. FML

You actually can't lose your job for going on maternity leave, go read the job rights poster, as well as any other state and federal laws and/or job policies.

at least he can't fire you then, because if he does, than you can sue him for wrongful termination and never have to work again

Wow, I have to say, I've seen many FMLs where bosses are douchebags. Majority came from the US. I'm so not moving there

He didn't hire you to make babies. He hired you to do your job. Quit whining, and earn your pay for a change.

Six weeks? What a joke. My mother didn't even go on maternity leave until a week before her delivery. She then went back to work the next day. Six weeks? Give me a break.
