I called out Friday. A phonecall was had before he read my text. Once he understood the severity, he took care of the rest. I say hes decent because he is a respectful manager, even if he did attempt to push me into the shift. He would have compromised and given me light work and helped me with what i needed, but once i talked to him on the phone and explained more he understood better and told me they will figure it out and told me not to worry anymore and just heal. Management doesnt always need to be amazing angels, they just need to be fair, respectful people with empathy and goodwill and your employment will be satisfactory and you will feel and enjoy the value you bring them, and enjoy the fair compensation. If not, fuck em and move on. Cheers
