I got in an accident recently, but I still managed to work my shift that day. I was running on adrenaline, but I don’t think I could have handled it the next day. I had to take the day off to get checked out by a doctor and get some x-rays. The following day was my day off, but I had to take another day off the next day, which was a Saturday, because I was still pretty shaken up and sore still. I worked for an hour that day, but then I had to go home. I spent the whole weekend sleeping.
When I came back to work, I got a written warning saying that I would be terminated if I missed any more work without notice. I was furious. I told them I had been in an accident. But it fell on deaf ears.
Still getting over being mad. Does your company have different kinds of time off? Have you ever experienced this?
Edit: To preface, I was given a verbal warning last quarter for missing more than 2 days or a total of 8 hours (whichever comes first). But I cannot miss any more work whatsoever until the 1st of October or it escalates.
