[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took a day off in BigLaw when my cat died, and I currently employ a nanny whom I would give time off for a pet passing away. No one ever called me unprofessional let alone immature (and I can assure you that it did not affect my career trajectory). Pets are members of the family and this is perfectly reasonable. OP, I am so sorry for your loss.[/quote] Immature applies to the fact that someone cannot “adult” properly by putting aside their job to sit home and whine over an animal. Anytime anyone gets a household pet, they know they are signing up for future grief. So when an animal does die, it makes no sense to not show up for one’s assigned duties because they cannot function properly.[/quote]
