An individual posted, “It’s better to give them a break than overwhelm them with deadlines when they are already under the weather. Less suicidal tendencies, the better.” Another added, “So, according to you, mental health is nothing.” A third expressed, “This is a boomer fallout issue. Because over the decades people learned even top performers were not treated well so the pendulum has swung the other way with extreme prejudice.” A fourth wrote, “Unless the world is dying, all deadlines can be extended. Believe me and trust me, start talking, if you have clients, they also understand.” “No off for wedding?”A  British CEO found herself amid controversy after she shared a poorly-worded post on Threads where she said that she denied two days’ leave of an employee getting married.
