Grieving employee feels unsupported by co-workers

DEAR HARRIETTE: I went through a very tough personal loss a few months ago and took bereavement leave from work for two weeks. My boss and supervisors were wonderful and understanding, but my co-workers didn't seem to understand at all. I came back, and most of my co-workers seemed to be upset with me for being gone. It's really like they resent me for leaving them to make up for my absence. I'm extremely hurt, and I don't feel supported in my grief at all. How do I handle this? -- No Empathy

DO JUST ONE THING

Not all glass can be recycled in the curbside recycling bin. A broken mirror, for instance, is not recyclable, because mirrors aren't 100% glass. They're actually two materials: a pane of glass and a chemically treated coating that provides the mirror effect. To make a mirror recyclable and avoid contaminating a load of recyclables, the reflective coating would have to be completely removed from the glass. That's a difficult process for an intact mirror; it's nearly impossible for a broken one. Instead, broken mirrors should be disposed of properly in the trash; used mirrors that are in good shape can be donated to charity.
