Today, I took a week off work because my father passed away. I was at the funeral home making arrangements when I overheard the owners complaining about how their insurance agent had left them to fend for themselves. I'm their insurance agent. FML

Speak up. I would have told them, "I'm terribly sorry that I had to take time off for my FATHER'S FUNERAL. I hope you will be able to COPE somehow!."

Forget them, you do what you need to do

It's insulting to their honor. Really, how dare he?

Well they probably sang the StateFarm jingle and he wasn't there. Pssh great neighbor he is.

What you're doing is to important to be worried about making other people happy at that time.

honestly man when I got in trouble for taking time off school for my dads funeral I went berserk. **** them they clearly have no idea what they're talking about.

I was in highschool when my grandmother got cancer I had been living with her for the past god knows how many years I wasn't sleeping from being back ans forth to the hospital I fell asleep in English class ans got yelled at she. I explained my grandmother who raised and cares for me was dying she said "I don't care, sit up." I hit her...

Im sorry about your loss OP. Don't let it bother you. You have the right to take time off. Your father passed away, it's not like you're on some vacation.

Sorry for your loss OP. I hope you can ignore any negativity at this time and be given time to mourn. X

Haha, that's quite amusing. If only it didn't have such a crappy background :(

How the **** is that amusing?

See it as a compliment. They struggle without you.

Even if you were only on a vacation, you certainly have the right to take a break now and then. I would have spoken up, personally, and given them a piece of my mind.
