Mother is very sick and has only a month or two to live. I live abroad so popping back and forth isn't possible at short notice. As this has happened so quickly, I have asked for a holiday to be extended by 3 days to be able to spend more time with my mother.
Boss said no - I am a teacher and this a very important exam period for the kids. I need the job, I definitely need the money. Part of my says just walk out the door now, another part of me says that people go through this type of situation all the time - being away from loved ones and not physically being able to see as much of them as possible due to work and distance.
I am planning to leave asap, but realistically that won't be possible for another couple of months, by which time my mum will have gone.
AIBU to hand in my month's notice and just bugger off?
