[QUOTE="DOODAH502, post: 5394802, member: 101248"] That experience is way different than mine. Extremely so. I won't name names, but I worked in TN at the WHITN hub as many things during my stretch, including PT Sup. Retired as feeder driver. When I was in package, my wife was diagnosed with stage 2-C ovarian cancer on Memorial Day. I called my manager to let him know, and that I might not be in Tuesday. I ran home to check on our dogs about 3 miles from this local hospital. Before I got back, he was already there with my wife for probably 15 minutes. Bent over backward to make sure I had all the time off I needed. Of course, we had to burn through vacation days to make some of that happen, but compared to the alternative, no problem. Then, when I was staying at the hospital with her nearly around the clock most days, both he and his wife came to our house and fed and pottied our dogs. He was an :censored: at work, but when the chips were down a completely different person. Asked my permission to explain to my co-workers if he could tell them where I was and what was going on, because they were asking about me. Me and him are still friends and we are both retired.
