I’ve been having some medical concerns and have missed a few days of work. I have had doctors notes to cover my missed days or have made up my hours.
One of my coworkers called out yesterday because he is sick. Another coworker told me she was quitting this week but apparently tested positive for covid. My boss pushed her saying she was hiding something from him and she said she just wasn’t going to come back.
I requested two days off and on the schedule I was off for the days I requested. My boss called me at 8:17 this morning asking where I was. I told him I was off today and tomorrow. He asked why. I said I was scheduled off but he kept pressing on the reason I requested. I told him I had a concert I was going to and I am helping my brother move.
He then calls me later in the day around 10am and said he was writing me up for being off today. He said “if I would have known why you asked off I would have never approved it. You said you could work today until 5:30 and you aren’t here.”
I stated that I worked 3 10 hour shifts and I work Saturday so these were my two off days and it shouldn’t matter what I do with my personal time. He kept throwing that I said I could work until 5:30 even though he scheduled me off.
I’ve been really irritated all day and am definitely going to refuse to sign the write up. It’s not my fault that two people are out and that I was scheduled off the two days I wanted.
