Whilst there is no legal obligation for an employer to offer time off after the death of a pet, many managers sympathise with losing a beloved family member.
For one grieving woman on Reddit, she faced criticism and judgement from her boss - so made the decision to leave her job entirely.
She was praised by people online for standing up to her manager, who said her family dog's death wasn't the "best reason" to skip work.
