CEO Won’t let me visit my dying aunt.

My aunt has been battling cancer for a while, the treatments were going well but she suddenly got worse. She was taken to the doctor where we found out the cancer had spread to her brain and that she had at most a month left. I work as a asset surveyor for local municipalities so I work outside of my home province for most of the year so when I got the news I obviously called my manager to ask if I could leave after work on the Friday travel back home at night and spend the Saturday with my aunt and drive back on Sunday.

How to respond when your boss asks you to do yet another meaningless task

Once you have smelled your own bullshit you have successfully completed this process.”
