[quote=Anonymous]We have no way of knowing if you work for a crazy family or a compassionate one or a reasonable one, or ...? I have a nanny. If you came to me and said "I can only get a dr appt tuesday at 9am - I can be at work by 11am, is that okay?" I'd say "Sure, health comes first.. I can't pay you for those three hours, but definitely take care of your health." If you came back from that appointment and said, "I am so sorry but I need surgery and will need 2 or 6 or whatever weeks to recover. I am torn on what to do because I really like you and want to keep this job, but am also in a lot of pain ...." I would say "Go get your surgery, I will get temporary help, and we will just re-start your trial when you're ready to come back." Then, if you actually did come back, I'd tell you we were re-starting your 30 days trial and if my husband and I felt like this surgery thing was a total fluke we'd cut it short so you could start accruing PTO and benefits.
