You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Oh wait, I forgot. I'm cross with you.
Dear Diary, someone else was cross with me today. COULD REVENGE BE IN MY FUTURE??
Hugs!!

Wait, I'm confused. Are you looking to GET REVENGE, or are you LIVING IN FEAR of it?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

If I want (which I do) to go home for grandma's funeral, I have to use vacation days. They won't let me use bereavement. And I am not allowed to take it unpaid.
They don't want to set a "great-grandparent" prescedent.

Aimee, I'm so sorry for your loss.
If I want (which I do) to go home for grandma's funeral, I have to use vacation days. They won't let me use bereavement. And I am not allowed to take it unpaid.Grandparents (or greats) aren't under their bereavement definition? Oh, ass 'em. Ass 'em in the ear.
How big of a dork am I that Cindy's link had me wanting to look up Anne Shirley...and Marilla...and Matthew?Big enough to be my very favorite kind of dork.

Grandparent's, yes. Great-grandparent's, no.

I've never heard of bereavement time. Does it count as a sick day or something?

WTF, that's clearly because most people don't have their greats. What a bunch of schmucks. Is there someone more reasonable to whom you can appeal. Clearly, this is because of their chosen wording, and someone interpreting it while suffering rectal-cranial inversion.

Some companies have bereavement days so that you don't have to take either vacation or sick, if you lose a loved one. There usually are restrictions as to who counts, but they're also generally left open to interpretation. Scott's boss gave him bereavement time for my grandmother, when Scott and I were only dating, whereas my old boss wouldn't have given time for an aunt or uncle (I think it was a parents/spouse/children/siblings policy on paper).
