It’s appalling how callous so many employers are about workers losing family members.

Read on to see how this worker showed her old boss the impact of her actions.

Was petty to an old boss

Many years ago I worked at a family owned nursing home.

My uncle was on life support following a triple or quad bypass, I can’t remember.

What led to him on life support was an infection they didn’t catch until to late.

It’s sad for other reasons, too.

My aunt wanted all her family there and called me at work to come to the hospital that was 2 hrs away from me to say good bye.

So I went to my boss and tell her what is going on and her reply to me was “it’s just an uncle.”

I ended up getting fired for not wanting to commit fraud for her.

It’s payback time.

Then I got a job at the local hospital a few years later.

A few years into working at the local hospital her uncle is dying from old age and she is outside the door of his room.

I look at her and pat her shoulder and say “It’s just an uncle.”

Then I walked off and go do my charting as I was the aide taking care of him.

Here is what people are saying.

Some may call it divine intervention.

She IS the moment.

True. Going rogue with patients is a problem.

I bet she wouldn’t respond to her call button.

Serves them right.
