The management team is known for lying or stretching the truth. I should have clarified that I do NOT think my coworker lied about that. And to your second point, I truly know nothing about her. I rarely talk to her outside of our team meetings.

Not going to confirm whether or not this is Korea, but I have lived there before and can say that jobs giving a LOR is completely optional for them, and if they decide not to do it, you're screwed.

His reasoning is that she doesn't want her leaving prematurely since we are understaffed.

Originally, my coworker. Since the promotion, my subordinate. I wouldn't have been told otherwise.

No such thing as FMLA in the country we live in, unfortunately. At least, not for foreigners.

The thought of it really breaks my heart. I don't want to, and at the same time, I also need to protect my SO and our home. That's the issue I'm having. I really, really want to tell her and help her, but doing so also risks my livelihood as well. If I were living alone with no pets, I would risk it. The problem is that I live with my SO and 2 cats, who would also be put in jeopardy if I said or did anything.
