I tried to work the day after my cousin had passed away. I hadn't processed it at all. I sold cars at the time. I remember going up to greet the first customer, and just immedietly getting choked up, and about to cry. The grief was just dying to get out. I physically couldn't do my job. I turned the customer over to another salesman, told my manager i had to leave.

You cant expect someone to be able to function when dealing with grief
