An office worker shared the frustrating response they received after informing their boss they needed the morning off to take their sick child to the hospital.
The exchange was shared on TikTok by career expert Ben Askins, who often highlights poor behavior from bosses online.
The mother texted her boss in the morning to let them know her son had been unwell overnight with a high fever, and she already had leave approved by another manager.
But instead of showing empathy, her boss said: “That’s really not ideal. You know what we’re up against this week, can’t someone else handle it?”
The employee replied: “No, sorry, there’s no one else that can do it.”
