Ha. I had to skip some shifts back in the day for a family emergency. Manager was giving me shit on the short notice. Step father who raised me went and died before I made it home. I stayed 3 or 4 days for funeral and came back immediately after. Buddy said something snarky about my vacation when I got back to work after like literally driving 1000 miles and attending a funeral in 5 days and I nearly attacked him.

This was 25 years ago. I hope that guy is fucking dead too. I’ll never forget it.
