[QUOTE="cheesey, post: 183943, member: 419"] Unfortunatly, there are very few companies that give a damn about their employees anymore. The fact that these are high profile high paid atheletes brings it to the forefront. In 1994 my Father in law died. The day we got back from his funeral (which was in the U.P. of Michigan) I got a phone call at 10:30pm that my brother died. I got 2 days paid off for both. My brother died in Indiana, and it was several days before we got him home for the funeral. I worked those days in between, or i would have had no money. I remember how companies handled deaths when i was a kid.........companies were like extended family. Not any more. It's all about the money. So it's a story, and the sports hounds will jump on it. None of us, Packer or Viking fans should hit each other over it. Just my view of course. [/QUOTE]
