What the hell is the point of having a supervisor that doesn't answer the phone

I haven't been able to take a sick day in a year or so because my boss doesn't answer the phone until about 4 hours after I have started work. If just once she would actually do her job, I wouldn't have to stumble in to work looking like a disheveled zombie on crack. I am so angry.

 

If I'm calling in sick, I will give my boss 3 calls, if no reply, either leave a voicemail or send a text. Worst case scenario, they call you back up asking where you are, you tell them you're sick and tried to call.

I love sick days, by the way. That's probably cause I don't actually get sick, I just take sponsored mini-holidays.

 

I rarely get sick either. I'm a man, I work until I drop. Today I have dropped and I don't have the energy to go in. The problem with my job is that I work at many different places and they all rely on me. I guess today they're going to have to deal with it.

 

Fuck them. If they rely on you, they should show they value you (by, say, picking up the goddamned phone when you call,) and if they don't understand they rely on you, this is as good a time as any to make them find out.

 

I called my supervisor's supervisor.

He said I can have the morning off and he will make her do my shift.

Goodnight people.

 

sexism ftw

Whoo! Good for you, Facey. I had that problem awhile back when I was having a lot of stress-related health problems because my job was just absolute hell, and some days I'd just stay home and when they called, I'd tell them flat out I had been trying to call them since 7 AM (you're supposed to call in 4 hours before your shift), and got no answer. Most of those days they didn't even need me in the first place.

 

I had a seizure during the call in sick once.

I don't know if they got the message....

I wasn't quite all there myself.

 

well babycakes i'm glad you can rest today
and fuck the girl, i find it really funny that she has to work your shift

 

i think a zombie on crack would be a pretty frightening spectacle, and nearly unstoppable at that.

 

Would you really fear a zombie on crack, though? From what I understand, crack suppresses your appetite.

 

Yeah but those punk ass bitches will roll yo ass for the scrilla when supplies are low.

 

:rofl:

 

supervisors exist because business owners feel guilty making so much more money than their employees, so they hire someone to do nothing except sit around the house and collect $50,000 a year in order to offset the owners' profits.
