I would be ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED if I found out that about my dad, we are super close. Losing either of my parents (thank god I’m blessed to still have both of them) will literally destroy me. I literally refuse to leave the state because they are still alive. I want to move south SO BAD but I will not go until my parents pass away because I want to spend as much time with them as I can. Family means everything to me personally. Fuck any job that would try to tell me I can’t take time off to be with them, especially during their potential final moments.

As someone in management, I agree with this entirely. Part of the reason I get paid more is because I have basically agreed to commit to the work hustle culture. Part of that is covering positions I normally supervise if staff have critical things that come up and we are short. I am really put off by managers that think they're above covering. I know we have our own workload, but in my mind, the bare minimum we do is work to retain good employees and keep the business functioning, even at the most basic level, if necessary.
Well said! I lost my mom in 2021. I was lucky enough to move back to my hometown and work from home, so was over at her apartment at least once a day for the last two years of her life. I’m so thankful for that time and my employer at the time. But there is never enough time. You are doing everything right, and you won’t have any regrets.
