I no longer work at this place, but am still close with two of my ex coworkers. Recently there was a tragic incident that led to the death of one of the ex coworkers family members. I was told by the other ex coworker that the boss refuses to close the office to let the staff go to support the grieving coworker. Are they allowed to just “sorry, but no.” Everyone?

Yeah I don't get to do that after having to pay $250 to get my cyst drained. $240 for an appointment with a surgeon to get it removed. $360 to pay the surgeon to remove it. $980 to pay the hospital to remove it. And $366 due March 31st to pay for my health insurance for April. I don't get to stay home and recover. I'm an American. Edit: Hopefully my follow up appointment is under $100 to have the stitches removed since I hit my deductible. Again how am I supposed to stay home and recover? I won't have a home to recover in if I don't work. And I'm lucky. If I didn't sign up for Obamacare the…

My cousin said he's lying on his resume about having a bachelor's degree. They've got an interview at a job that said bachelor's required on Monday. Got me wondering if anyone here has ever tried that and successfully got into a job that said bachelor's required.
