Work is gay!
 

Alright, i've been sick for almost a week and Thrusday I had to work, so at about 9:30 AM I call in sick, I called early so they would have enough time to find someone, so at about 5:30 my manager Mary calls me and asks me what's wrong I tell her nasty cold and my throat is hurting alot, she then tells me that I sound fine(which pissed me off)So she asks me how long i've been with the company and I tell her since late setpember and she tells me "Cale, youve called in sick once in September, once late October, and now, on a yearly calendar, thats three times, and thats to many, so when you come in Saturday(today) for your 10 AM shift, you'll meet with the store manager to discuss this! hellfire:

this is bullshit! i'll post the outcome of the meeting when I get home.

nasty - kick the shit out of the store manager - and say i quit b4 u get fired.

Then get charge....um...no, but my manager walks around like he has a stick up his ass.

LOL I do that to the punks that work for me

I have a nasty cold right now myself. Go to work and cough, sneeze and blow snot all over the place. Get them fuckers sick mad:

walk in like charlie sheen did in MAJOR LEUGE when he was about to get kikd off the team, throwing the chair around, and threatining. cool:
or walk inand hack and cough in his face.

do what milton does, and burn the building!

Where do you work?

ive been with my Timmy's for 2 years. Never called in sick once. I sorta tough things out. But meh she has no buisness in your siockness like she just did. oOo:

Ouch i would quit then get a job at a competing opponet of your job that will make him really mad.

I dont call in sick but i show up late all the time biggrin:

that fucking sucks balls.

out of curiosity how old are you?

17, and I work at Loblaws, I went in and there was no meeting she just talked to me and she doesn't believe i'm sick, dumb bitch.

I dont know how your company or countrys' labor laws are...but if it were over here you can do a variety of things. First tell her you dont give a shit whether she thinks you are sick or not, that is what sick time is for. Second, you can say this is the first time this year i have called in sick, so oct and nov dont count and even if they did, who gives a shit, its only been 3 times. instead of trying to defend yourself from calling in sick, go on the offensive. If you let management know early on that you wont put up with this kind of shit, chances are they wont fuck with you, even if you do something wrong. Ive gone through this shit before at my old job. Find out what their attendance/discipline policies are and use them.

that sucks. its great to have a great staff where i work. no stupid problems like that.

come to work looking really ill (as you are now) and cough on the food and shit and hawk up something nasty on your manager

You Gay.

Thanks hun

butsecxse?

die in a river

I hate managers. I worked at wal-mart last summer, those idiots wouldn't know if an elephant prefored a roto-rooter on their asses, since they've already got the bitches under them snifin out their bowels.


I hate work, but I love money...... biggrin:

Currently I work at McDonalds ( yeah I know, "Haha") and the system there SUCKS DICK, literally. You are not allowed to come to work if you are sick, because you might get the other workers sick, AND most importantly of all you might spread what you have to the food and the customers will get sick. Well, the catch is "calling in sick" will get you in trouble and IS NOT ALLOWED.

HOW RETARDED IS THAT !?

Grillsman?

is your name really cale because my name is cale too woooooo

Blame your sickness on the working conditions.

"The dust is to intense, the AC to powerful, the people i work with come in sick when they shouldnt for fear they'll be fired, or have to talk to the manager much like im having to do now."

<Misguy> I can't come into work today, I'm in a comma.


Classic.

all the rivers are frozen..

I cant believe they didnt go for it. I thought i had it locked.

a guy I work with told me he was getting a meal at macdonalds and there were two teenagers in the back room, making burgers and whatnot.. anyways, he saw them spit right into the burgers, THATS FUCKING SICK, so he yelled "MANAGER! LOOK WHAT THEY'RE DOING!" so the manager took care of it and gave my co-worker a fre meal, so he wouldnt say anything to other customers.

man, if that was me, id be like, "fuck that.. a free meal? gimme a free lifetime supply of mcdonalds or I'll call in a news crew" haw

lol. i'd do the same thing. ' YO EVERYBODY!!! GUESS WHAT'S IN THE BURGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

try the yellow highlighter applied to face thing, like in the office depot commericals biggrin:

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!one

Just dont use pink biggrin:

oOo:

Or you guys could just not be deadbeats. Being management, I know how much it sucks when you have a bunch of pansies calling out because they have colds.

I fired anyone who didn't come through the door with a doctor's note, because if you weren't bad enough to see the doc, you were good enough to be at work.

Slackers.

that's smart Mr. high-and-mighty, don't let them miss one day so the cold can become something worse so they miss 3-4 days, productivity at its finest.

I have often made the mistake of going to classes when I was sick, being Gung-Ho like that only gets you complications and more missed classes/workdays.

Im a manager also at my job and i have to agree with noctis on some points, I have employees come in pretending to be sick, like they will fake cough and shit and be like can i go to the restroom to throw up and im like sure just one sec sure enough 5 minutes later they are fine and forgot they had to throw up or whatever rolleyes: so in short dont be a fucking moron at wrk and pretend you sick because at work, who the fuck really cares? Hell all the times i asked off b/c i was sick it was to bad for me b/c i was a fucking manager so fuck all the ppl under me they can deal with the saem shit i had to

christ you guys are all dicks. do you like working if your sick? no i dint think so then why do you make your workers do it!?! cuss: why dont you guys set up a system wher for every 100 hours you work you get a sick day. if you dont take one in 300 hours then you can take 3 days off if your sick. if you use them all up & get sick then tough, then you have a right to say no.

I call bullshit on that. Its fucking pussies who go to the doctor because they have a fucking COMMON cold that make it so that people can never get appointments for real things.

I've been so sick at points in my life that i've taken baths with bags of ice in the water, while still sweating. I still didnt see a damn doctor. So saying you should have a doctors note is bullshit. Hell The one time i did go to the emegency room my ankle was the bigger than a softball and purple. I didnt even think to ask the doc for a note for work. Mostly cause i didnt give a fuck about work, my ankle was the size of a FUCKING SOFTBALL. I called in that night and said i wasnt going to be to work that night, and probably wouldnt be in that week. The boss was pissed and told me to get a note. I told him i couldnt because i went to the ER and didnt think about it. One of my co-workers i had been playing paintball with drove me, and was able to tell my boss what happened, so he was less pissed. Come to find out the ass hole thought i was trying to take a vacation. I went back 3 days later cause i couldnt afford to miss work, my shoe didnt fit, i could barely walk, and i never did fill the prescription for pain killers.

I've shown to work so fucking sick before that everyone tells me to go the fuck home. But if i just call in they treat you like shit the next time you come in.

Frankly i think you should hire better workers. Treat them with some fucking respect so they dont mind working for you. Then maybe when they call in sick they'll mean it. Instead of calling in because they hate you, and there job.

Have any of you had a real job?

The last 3 jobs I have had , I could call out sick all I wanted. Just means I don't get paid.

I agree with Noctis for a different reason than Management stress.....lol

Try and call in sick when you have clients that are expecting you to be there.

Try calling out sick when you have a bonus on the line.

Try calling out sick when you have a familly to support.

Art , I suggest that next year after your birthday , you leave this piece of shit company and get a job that will value you and that you will value as well.

Any decent work place will have some sort of vacation or leave plan , that will give you the abillity to take a sick day every once in awile.

Never settle for second best buddy.
