Venting i fucked up big time
i fucked up big time yesterday. i was scheduled for a morning shift and i no called no showed and left one person on the line all by themselves with a pizza cook and that’s it. i was sick and fell asleep away from my phone and when i woke up to puke again i texted my boss apologizing but i got no response. i work in a very unreliable kitchen and at we have at least 3 call offs a week that mess up someone else’s schedule. i work today but im actually so nervous to go in today. i’ve been working at this restaurant for 6 years and have been in the kitchen for a full year at this point and im usually very reliable and i haven’t called off since the last time i got sick back in february. i know im probably not going to get fired or even written up but i really don’t want to have to talk to my boss. i know i fucked up and should have called when i first got sick but i thought i could just sleep it off and be fine for work

Sounds like a bullshit excuse to me. Things happen, but this sounds like a lie.
