Upset

I just informed my employer that I was going to be out for 4 weeks. Boss says well if you can go to school then why can't you come to work mind you I go to school a total of 8 hours per week. Then says well I wish I could talk u out of it because I never knew anyone that had it and didn't have problems. I'm so upset! I'm a charge nurse of a sub acute floor in a nursing home.
