the straw that broke the camels back so to speak. Any company that would even ask that question has probably been a pain in the royal back side forever anyway.

I don't expect to be bowed down to at all, but I do expect an employer to have some empathy for a situation.

I bet you are just like them huh? Don't give a rip about people just the work load??

Very very sad
