My sister works at an university, and her boss is a woman, who happens to be very emotionally and mentally disturbed, cries all the time, and asks my sister to do, what I call, beyond the call of duty sort of tasks. Well, today she asked my sister, while she was sobbing, if my sister could come over to her house and help her vaccuum up her flea infested carpeting this Sunday. Mind you, this is my sister's only day off, as she works 2 jobs and goes to graduate school full time. Was this appropriate? My sister feels awkard because this lady is her boss, and her house is within walking distance to my sister's. My sister wants to be polite and not hurt her feelings, or feel that she is not performing the functions of her job to the best of her ability. Any advice?
