Another opportunity for good PR missed.

That HAS to be against the law.

Am I the only one that sang that?

Her Body Her Choice - be more like Matt :D

What is it with Americans seemingly timing their workers to the second? Unless you're an air traffic controller or a heart surgeon, what does it matter if you start work at 08.59 or 09.03?

You're so sick that you leave work, without pay. You can't afford a doctor's note. So naturally you get written up. Let me guess, land of the free, home of the brave.

Wait.... you have to pay for a doctor's note? WTF?

I identify with the anger-wrinkles on that paper 🤣

"The restaurant suffered immensely due to her abrupt departure from her scheduled shift." Methinks the restaurant would've suffered a great deal more had she stayed & thrown up all over the food and customers 🙄

The restaurant suffered immensely....because one person didn't finish their shift...🙄

I see they are a bartender. Report this to the health inspector.

At a restaurant they legally CAN'T let you work if you're vomiting for 24 hours. This is ridiculous! 🤦‍♀️🤬

Many employees do this now. Sick time paid with a doctor's note; but going to the doctor can cost more than you'll make in a day. Especially if you're a tipped employee, because they only pay you your hourly rate; which can be $2.13 an hour.

Who runs to the doctor every time they vomit? That's a good way to get labeled a hypochondriac.

"The restaurant suffered immensely"... so if she threw up in the food/ her colleagues/ the diners instead, the restaurant would not suffer?

The restaurant would have suffered more immensely had she hurled all over the dining room. Next time, barf on the boss.

Whoa

He gotta be bored… real real bored

I think the public should know what company this is.

Some people should not be put in any position of authority, no matter how small.

You can't make this s**t up.

"We walk out as a team"?! I'm curious about what business would require this.

This was a problem everywhere in Healthcare. I'm a paramedic meaning locked in the back of a confined space with them for extended periods. I became a specialized critical Covid transport medic. No one got hazard pay. No medics, emts, nurses or doctors. We all got shafted. That's why every hospital and doctors office is so short staffed. Everyone quit.

Go George

Feeling bad about it is not standing up for the guy.

The grammar?!

Was a switchboard operator in a downtown law firm. Owner yelled at me in front of a roomful of attorneys for being TOO POLITE to callers. My second and LAST day 😜

Rules are for thee but not for me.

TBH, I wouldn't want an an employee saying that "all the managers were in the back with d***s in their hands" in the hearing of customers / management. It's vulgar and insolent. If the employee is making a quiet complaint to a co-worker they're friends with, that's one thing. If they're saying it loud enough to be overheard, then getting a verbal warning for a first offence or a write-up if it's part of a general attitude problem is not unreasonable.

When I worked activities at an old folks home I was written up for "watching TV in the day room." I was watching TV, but it was after I had punched out and I had the time cards to prove it. I was waiting for my mom (who also worked there) to finish her shift. They tried to write me up and my 5 foot mother flattened everyone in the office with nothing but words. They tore up the paperwork.

Yes, they need to be PUNished.

How do you give 14+ days notice for bereavement? Have a coworker whose sister did in her sleep. How would she have known that 2 weeks ahead of time?

No sympathy. I'm a chef, and last week at work I cut open my finger so severely that I severed an artery. This was after 5pm. I still clocked in at 9am the following morning for my shift. The worst part was actually having people assume I was cut by a knife. My knife skills are on point, I was cut by the sheet metal edge of the door on a salad bin in the kitchen. Smdh.

IF only one on this list was fake - this is the one.

Right, and your name is Princess Allison. Sure.

"Needs a good... cussing"?

Wren was borderline insubordinate. After being informed that the patient had been told by her doctor to bring the form back, Wren should have ended her little snit fit and accepted the form. She's lucky that she didn't get fired.

I know a lot of employers are awful, but some employees are s***-stirrers. Sierra sounds like a pain in the butt

I can't feel bad for this.
