Report: NYC school employee faked daughter's death

I coworker of mine took time off because his wife passed away. The #$%$ hit the fan when his wife actually called the job up a couple of days later asking if her husband was there.

Ignorance and stupidity is running rampant in America - yet another unfortunate example. We are a great country that deserves better.

If her employer requested a death certificate as proof, she must have been a repeat offender. That would also explain why she used an immediate family member's death rather than a parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, cousin, etc.

What kind of monster could even consider making up such a story. There are a lot of broken hearted people that have REALLY lost their children. And this creature uses it as an excuse for a vacation.
Lady, You need to pray that your lie NEVER comes true.

Sounds like many college students whose grandparents die routinely during midterms and finals. All grandparetns need to know their lives are in danger in mid-March, late May , early October and late November.

How anyone can do such a thing is beyond me. I wouldn't even claim someone was sick, for fear of that person REALLY getting sick. Maybe I'm just weird. Does anyone else think like I do?

I could never imagine faking my child's death. Karma...

Wonder what her relationship with her daughter is like since she wants her dead!

What the hell is a High School of Hospitality Management??

She's got an extended vacation to look forward to now...

a parent coordinator?... ummm.... what the Hell is that?

Wow...anyone seen the movie Idiocracy?? Were heading in that direction

It would have been more fun to hear her attempted cover story when it was discovered that her daughter "came back to life" later on.

Hmmmm, she better not be allowed to use her as a dependent with the IRS!!!!!

"Manhattan High School of Hospitality Management"??????? Sounds like a trade school for hotel staff.

She got her 2 weeks ofl and the rest of the year too. Have a nice vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To quote Yoda “Matter not race, political affiliation, education, gender, age, weight: stupid fix you can’t!”

Whatever happened to just calling in sick?...Taking a few vacation days? Well, I hope the vacation was worth it.

I knew a guy where I used to work that subscribed to his home town newspaper so if someone died with his last name he could claim they were is relative and get time off. He had a very common name and got a lot of free time off to attend the funerals over the years.

the epitomy of "how low can you go!"
