********, period.
You must work in the most horrible place in the World. I have never once worked for anyone that doesnt give two cents about my personal life. Yeah, its not important to the actual work being done at a place of buisness, but they actually care for me as a person and they also understand I have a life outside of work. Your quote to them is completely wrong and inappropriate. If I have a family member die, traumatic experience outside of work and it effects my attitude for the next couple of days or week, then yes, they ask and care and give time off for funerals. I think if your thinking is that no one that you work for cares about you other than the work you produce then are the one that has the issues and need to find yourself a better job and also some time to get away from everything and realize this whole work thing is not 100% about work or production, its about experience.
I understand the cop thing, if you do something illegal and get caught, yeah he's not going to care, but in the work place, your quote and thoughts are wrong.
