My current workplace has a great president and my department head is also amazing.
The president handed me $100 and told me to get a nice bouquet of flowers for my mom who had been just diagnosed with Ekbom. He let me work remote for a week so I could drive out if state to take her to doctor's appointments.
Recently, I asked again if I could work remote for a month while I help my mom sell her house so she can move closer to me. My department head said absolutely, no questions asked. The president also okayed it.
When I arrived first day on the job, I asked hiw long we took for lunch, and my department head said: take as long as you want. As long as you put in your 8 hours a day and finish your projects, you're fine.
I love my job. The lack of micromanagement and the trust my employers have in us is worth so much more than I imagined.
