Antiwork

My (27) dad died three months ago and my boss (40) decided to make our business lunch about how his parents are still alive

And he asked our business partners if their parents were still alive, how it was difficult to take care of them, how many times they visited them. We're all expats so the topic was even harder for me as I wasn't there when my dad passed away. I had to pointedly look elsewhere to hide the tears in my eyes as they all went about how their parents were still alive. Of course, my boss knows about what happened to me, he was aware. I don't understand why he thought that was a good idea. I feel like the workplace is just so cold and inhumane.
