[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 518216, member: 12570"] How did this segway to the OP's boss being a total jerk? The boss was never mentioned in the OP--the OP was simply asking what the contract stated if you have a death in the family while you are on vacation. For all we know, the center manager will take care of the OP by granting him bereavement leave starting Monday. On a somewhat related note, my father passed shortly before Peak last year. He was cremated and the family (my brother and I) decided that there would be no services and that we would have our own private moment in the spring, when we plan on spreading his ashes at a place that he loved to spend his spare time. Anyway, my on-car, center manager and I sat down and decided that I would take my bereavement leave the 1st 3 workdays after Peak. This did not leave them short-handed at Peak and gave me the time that I needed. Now, if we had decided that we were going to have a service, I would have taken my bereavement leave immediately but there really was no reason to. Sit down with your mgt team Monday morning and I am sorry for your loss. [/QUOTE]
