For attendance. If you get to work late, but under 2 hours from start time, you get a half a point. More than 2 hours a whole point. If you call in 1 point. No call no show 2 points. At 9 points you get terminated.
The other day around lunch a coworker got a phone call from his neighbor saying his house is on fire. He left, obviously, to go home.
His house burnt to the ground. He lost everything, including his 2 dogs.
He showed up to work a few days later and HR came down to talk to him. We assumed they were reaching out to see what kind of assistance they could offer.
They gave him paperwork stating he got a point for leaving early the day his house burnt down.
The entire plant is fuming about it. We have a communications meeting every month. I truly can't wait for that meeting, because i know the shit is about to go down. I look forward to hearing HRs excuse of why they couldn't let that slide.
