[quote=Anonymous]In my office we do not advance pay, or allow employees to go into the negative with leave (of any kind).  We have guidelines expressly stating that this is not allowed.

It is unprofessional.

Does that mean you can't ask, or that it's a federal offense if you are in an unusual circumstance?  No.   A great deal depends on your relationship w/ your employers, your tenure, your performance, their attitudes towards separating personal/professional versus treating you like a family members, etc...

The safest, highest ground is not to ask.  But if you're truly in difficult circumstances and it will be the only time, etc... then maybe it's ok.  But you do run a risk of changing how you're perceived.

I'm an MB, with a fantastic nanny who we value and trust.  However we are far too privy to her personal issues and I very much wish she would keep more of those issues to herself.  It is uncomfortable and awkward and makes us very aware of her limitations in areas outside her work responsibilities.  And that's none of our business, but her constant over-sharing makes it our business and has significantly affected our perception of her.  So just exercise caution.

Good luck w/ the divorce, etc...  It doesn't sound easy.[/quote]
