Bereavement here in the US is bs!

They say it's only immediate family, but what happens to people like me? I have no immediate family and consider my few close friends as family. On Friday 1 of my friends passed away from organ failure due to long-term alcohol abuse at the age of 35 smh. So technically by these companies rules for bereavement, I could never use it if 1 of my close friends die….. Thats so messed up. Not like that would stop me from going to a funeral, because I'd call in sick. It's just that the rules for bereavement need to be updated for people like me. Just doesn't seem fair, but what is fair these days huh?? Just here venting
