I am a very responsible person who is also very human, and made a mistake by sleeping in longer than usual and being late. This is an absolute first for me, I always arrive to my workplace practically half an hour before my shift starts. I get pulled in to the office and am given a write up, manager stating that it’s “customary to give write ups for late employees”. Didn’t want to even waste breath explaining that it was the first time, I did everything I needed to do correctly to fix the mistake, etc. I’m just so mentally exhausted and drained. It is so discouraging when you are doing your absolute best and one slip up is taken so seriously. Quiet quitting is in progress…
Edit: been working here for over a year. Only called out twice the entire year and have never been late any of those 365 days. Nothing is ever good enough for these employers, I swear.
