  • Because the title doesn’t really give enough context they were advertising as a place for kids with mental health problems but instead just used them for free labor

    “Trinity Teen Solutions promised to help girls with mental health and behavioral problems, but a group of women who’d been placed there as teens by their parents accused the [now-defunct ranch] of forcing them to perform manual labor. Tasks included repairing barbed wire fences, castrating animals and laying irrigation pipes, Injuries were disregarded, it states, and the girls were subjected to humiliating punishments if they did not do the work as ordered.”







  • And from an accounting perspective what are they going to put in as the reason why you aren’t at work?

    Most companies don’t offer bereavement for a pet, personal time off could work but that can be a limited resource and it encourages a person to work through it, unpaid time off is the same thing, wait! sick leave kind of makes sense to use but the person isn’t really sick it’s more like their mental health isn’t doing great because they are sad that their dog is being put down.

    My last 3 jobs at a minimum had the ability to take a mental health day for “I feel sad” and I just don’t remember anything later than that and that is in the U.S. which is known for having terrible work leave practices








  • Do you think you could perform your job at 100% if you found out that your child died that morning? Do you think you might have a higher chance of making a careless mistake if your dog was scheduled to be put down when you get home from work? Do you want a surgeon cutting you open the same day they found out their SO cheated on them?

    Feeling sad is mental health and can 100% have a serious impact on your job
