Sittin Shiva

We got a mass email from our office manager today. My boss's mom died this afternoon.

I am hearing that we may all be going to the funeral. It's about an hour away and we all may car pool up there. Not sure how I feel about that. I thought we would send an office fruit basket or something.

Would you want all of your employees showing up to your mother's funeral?

not really, to be honest, not unless they knew her personally. a nice plant (or arrangement of lives plants) and a sympathy card would be more apropos in my opinion.

ditto what Dykewife said. I think it would be a bit weird for both the boss and the employees.

In Aus we'd use the bosses absense as an excuse for a barbie and piss up...
