I remember a joke-not-joke sign that was up briefly saying that staff were not allowed the be sick and had to give two weeks notice of death. This was from the boss that would respond to “I’m cold” with roll your sleeves up and work harder!
Actual quotes from managers I've overheard over the years:
Employee: I have to take Friday off, I'm going to a friend's funeral.
Manager: How close a friend?
Employee: I'll be off next Wednesday to Friday. I have to fly to New Brunswick for my mom's funeral.
Manager: Next week is bad for us. Could you reschedule it to the week after?
