My Boss Paid Me A Full 40 Hours After I Missed Half The Week Due To My Dad’s Death

By a friend • September 1, 2025

I work for a small company that I just started with in April.

When I called for a wellness check and received the news that they found my dad dead, I had to leave work halfway through my shift Wednesday and didn’t return until the next week.

I just got my paycheck for last week and I was shocked to see that it was my regular full paycheck!

I called my boss to confirm and he said that “I didn’t ask to miss work” and he wanted to help me out.

I am so touched!! It was completely unexpected.
