what an awful day!!

today is my mothers bday... i planned to stop there early morning since she lives 10 minz away from, and is on the way to work...plan to give her gift , and spend a little time with her and than go off to work and than we were supposed to go out to dinner...DH my siblings, dad mom... tonight

i get a call 7 am from my brother who says mom just left in the ambulance shes at the hospital... quickly i shower and leave to the hospital...as of yet nothing is wrong seriously... she is havimg dizzy spells, and (she has the flu). the doctor thinks the fluids from her brain are draining in to whatever passage and causing severe sinus headache...if im not mistaken... but i stayed there for 2 hours, and i even wanted to take off from work, she insisted i go, but than she had to pee! so i help her to the bathroom (and thus got 15 minutes late to work) ...and my boss is at work, mad, i tell him im coming straight from the hospital...he says 'oh we all have to put our personal issues aside...' he now is writing that im late on my file, and perhaps dock my pay for those 15 minutes. hes f*cking lucky i even came to work. i work in a law firm and have a bunch of crap on my desk with lil sticky notes all over in red...we are extremely short on staff, and im so upset now...i feel li ke just walking out.... and to top it all off i now realize how short life is, since i was in the emergency room, i saw a little boy crying i just asked him what happened he said 'my dads heart stopped' ...and theyre they were bringing his dads body out on the stretcher.....

anyways....to further make this day worse, i have village court for a speeding ticket tonight...

oh boy, I am so sorry you are having such a terrible day. You should complain to someone else about your boss writing you up and docking you pay. It's not like you planned to come in late.

I hope everything goes okay with your mom.

I feel so bad for that little boy too. :(

IF he does dock you the 15 minutes I would take it to HR and file a complaint.

I am so sorry to hear It's really sad how some bosses are such aholes! I am going to lawschool and here these stories of lawyers treating their assistance like sh!t and I promise I would never be like them. One thing is having someone who is completely irresponsible and another thing is having someone with real life issues. I hope your mom gets better really soon!

It's really scary how one may be here and the next day be gone. Your boss should have been sympathetic, and what's sad is that when it's his turn to be in that situation he would want support from his staff.

I hope your mom gets better really soon and you can have her back home to celebrate her birthday. She will be in my prayers.

oh no!! First of all - many many prayers going out to you, your mother, and family. As well as that poor little boy you met and HIS family. How incredibly terrible!!

Second, I'm so sorry to hear about all of that extra crap you just did NOT need today. Seriously - if I were you I would have just called in sick. I can't believe your boss would have the nerve to tell you to put your personal life on hold. Life is not about your career - that's just a segment of it. Obviously your family and their health should ALWAYS come first. Karma's a b!tch tho. He'll see.
