flag A California supervisor denied an employee’s bereavement leave after her dog died, sparking debate over pet loss policies.

flag A California supervisor denies an employee’s bereavement leave request after her 11-year-old dog died, sparking tension when she compared her loss to a colleague’s leave following her toddler son’s drowning. flag The supervisor argues the situations are not comparable, and HR declined to intervene due to no formal policy on pet bereavement. flag The advice is for employers to establish clear guidelines for such cases. flag In a separate letter, a man distressed over his wife’s desire to sell their home and move to a senior living facility, despite his objections, is considering divorce after 55 years of marriage. flag He’s urged to consult professionals and explore alternatives like assisted living while he stays in the home, recognizing her behavior may reflect emotional withdrawal.
