[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you furious about? I doubt she took this decision lightly and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with you. Give the lady some grace. [/quote]

I am furious because 1) I don’t believe she’s being honest 2) didn’t give a notice [/quote]

So, you would have rather that she flew back home, gave notice, worked for 2 weeks, then flew back to support her fiance and his family?

What would you have had her do for two weeks, knowing that she was going to be leaving.  Would you have assigned her temporary HR work to do?  Is there anything that you could have assigned her to do that wasn't on a computer that she couldn't do remotely?  I know there is "company policy", but please actually think, instead of just replying like an AI model.  You have an employee who has been there about a week, has been going on the meet-and-greet tour, has not even completely onboarding, and they need to leave for a family emergency.  Isn't it better that she didn't make the company pay her 2 weeks of salary before off-boarding?  And, you can start to work on finding her replacement without having spent a lot of other people's time, trying to teach/train her for 2 weeks of work.

I can understand #1, and, there is reason to be upset (furious seems to be a tad overboard here for something that is not that unusual in HR), but #2 really shouldn't make a difference.
