As if dying isn't enough, now you can be fired for it?!
I found this document on the Kansas - Department of Administration site. It is a How-To document on how to terminate an employee who has died. I just thought the concept was funny. I guess I took it for granted that this process would be automatic.
"Why isn't Bob at work today?"
"Oh, you didn't hear? He died over the weekend."
"Typical. He'll find any reason not to show up. If he was tired of working here, then he should have just quit. I think this is a bit of an overreaction."
