Now that my partner is leaving this job …

I get to reminisce on that time his manager straight-faced told him, while our two year old was in hospital with a blood infection, that said daughter having cancer was really hard on her and hard on the business. This was while they were trying to strong-arm him into taking at least four months unpaid leave when they were told we would lose our house and be completely unable to support ourselves if that happened but also refusing to fire him/take responsibility for forcing the leave so we could claim some meager benefits. Good times.
