When Annie’s son becomes ill, she takes a week off from work. But when she returns to the office, her boss has a police officer and a pair of handcuffs waiting for her. You know how sometimes you think that you’d be valuable to the company because you worked in a place for a decade?
Yeah. No. That didn’t happen to me. Let me tell you everything. I’ve been working for a company for ten years. Straight out of college, I joined as a marketing intern and then worked my way up the corporate ladder — the pay increasing at an exceptionally slow rate. One day, my five-year-old son, Kenny, became very sick.
His fever was through the roof, and he kept vomiting. That would upset any mom, right? There was no way that I could leave him at home with a babysitter. I needed to be there, watching him, and ready to take him to the doctor if the time came. So, I decided to call my boss and tell him the truth. I also hadn’t used my leave for the year, so I knew it couldn’t be an issue. I left my son in his bed and walked away. “Hi, Mr. Williams,” I said when he answered on the first ring.
