This depends a lot on if your employer is good or not. I get 20 days bereavement leave per year for close family (spouse, kids, parents) and 10 days for extended family (grandparents)
Thanks to divorce & remarriage, I used to have 8 living people that I considered grandparents, plus a few more that I guess could've also been considered grandparents, but they were estranged and I never met them. If everyone is divorced and remarried, I think you could claim up to 16 grandparents!

You're using PTO for a death in the family?

Welcome to America. Oh you have none? Guess you won't be grieving these bills ain't gonna inflate themselves.

I think most any full time job in the US has bereavement leave.
It's only the poorest of the poors that get absolutely fucked, as is tradition.

Nope, but I don't have to fake a death to take a couple days.

yeah, i knew most other kids didn't have five grandpas but that's what I grew up with so it doesn't seem unusual to me.

Amateurs. What about our poor stepparents’ parents?? Step-granny’s really had a hard winter this year.
