Kerry,
That was an interesting article!  I esp. liked how the one employment offical said he had never heard of such a thing as employees asking for time off to care for a sick pet, and how riduculous the idea was.  What this short sighted guy doesn't realize, and what many employers don't realize, is that so many people who call off to work b/c of a sick child, parent or self, or car trouble....are actually calling out to take care of a sick pet.  They just know better than to tell the truth to someone shallow enough to consider taking time to take care of a loved one, who is not a person, as ridiculous. 
 
So many of these money-hungry, work-is-everything bosses, who are so certain they are so smart...have NO IDEA HOW MANY TIMES they've been played!  (And may they never figure it out!)  :)

Hi all
Thought this article about my fellow Brits would make a nice start to
the day! (Wouldn't be surprised if it was the same case in the U.S.)

BRITISH people are more likely to take time off work to care for their
sick pets than their partners or relatives, new research out today
claimed.
