(She’s safe, and professionals are involved.)
On Thursday, a long-running toxic situation at my wife’s office blew up with enormous professional and personal consequences for her. She was already cracking under the weight of bad company policy, and this sent her over the edge.
She was in no position to call in to work on Friday, and again today. So I did. And my anxiety was through the roof. What would her boss think? Was he going to demand to talk to my wife? What’s the sick policy? What’s the leave policy? Is me calling in for her going to ruin her career? If she’s able to go back, how to cope with the fallout?
MY WIFE IS SUICIDAL AND I AM FOCUSED ON WHAT HER BOSS THINKS.
Work priorities are completely fucked up. What a completely ghoulish state of affairs.
