Your boss: Well you used up all 12 weeks of your unpaid FMLA getting that little guy to all his cancer treatments, and you can only do that once every 5 years. But you still have 12 hours of PTO accrued and of course there’s our generous bereavement benefit of 16 unpaid hours. So, please, take all the time you need to recover from this, up to the 28 hours of leave time available. In these troubling times, remember that CCT Logistics in there for you, we’re family after all.
At one of the best companies I ever worked for, we had an employee who unexpectedly lost his sister with whom he was very close. I never got the full story, but it was sudden and tragic.
H.R. and his manager sat down with him when he went on extended leave to go over the over the policy for how much time he could take and then basically told him “fuck the policy, take all the time you need and let us know when you’re ready to come back.”
I really liked that company until private equity ruined it.

Can’t have capital and nice things.
Tell that to our billionaire overseers.
