Absolutely. Perfect example from my work


I work for an awesome place -- the benefits are amazing. For example, we get bereavement leave; if a grandparent dies, you get five days of bereavement leave.

One coworker's grandfather died six months ago. He took three days of bereavement leave when they spread the ashes and then was back at work. Just this past week, he took a vacation to California and used the other two days of bereavement leave. "Well, it's use or lose, so I might as well," he told me. "I'll be seeing family out there and we'll talk about grandpa, so it's applicable."

Yeah, no. This is an offering meant to help you in the grieving process, not something to bank and use for your next vacation.
