GOT DUMPED. Taking heartache leave from work.
Coming at you from Tokyo! The land of Godzilla and second rate baseball, but first rate employment. It appears Hime & Company gives its employees “heartache leave”. That’s right, boyfriend dumped you, apply for leave. Husband took off with the maid, apply for leave. Now there is reference to women, as this company only has women working for it.
Get this, the older you are, the more days you get off. So you need to be careful dating when young. For example, when you are young, you want to play the field and may date many, so there is more chance of getting dumped. DON’T DO IT AT Hime and Company, because if you are under 24 you only get one “heartache leave” day. If you are planning a long term career at Hime and Company, plan to date reliable, financially, mature, stable men. Once you hit the 25 years old mark, then you can get a little more wild. You know go for that rebel Sushi chef who drives a moped….because between 25 to 29 years old you get two days off.
The older you are the more days you get off. So if you are 60 years old, you can probably get a whole month off.
One has to wonder, with this policy if Hime and Company really screens their employees thoroughly. Ensure employees are good looking, find out their dating history etc, etc. You can’t have some bar fly working for you. Every other week she’ll be off. “Boss, CHUNG just left me”. “Ha so, third time this month, you shoulda finda more stable men. Drink cup of tea, play with a Panda bear, tacka day off and we see you back in office Thursday”.

What!? WTF? The past 2 contribs need to build a bridge and get over it! HEARTACHE LEAVE??? How about “Superbowl Team Loss Leave”? Or “Hangover Leave”? Or maybe “I overslept and didn’t feel like going to work Leave”? Hime and Company must make worthless crap if they can allow “Heartache Leave”. After hearing this, tomorrow I’ll need “HEARTBURN LEAVE”!
