Last Saturday two of the three closers in the deli were no call-no shows. One was asked to come in and he agreed, but he no-called, no showed. His excuse was he didn't want to come in and since he wasn't he didn't. And did management say anything? Hell no! Yet when I called off for three days in the spring with the FLU I was written up for missing 3 of 30 days. We've gotten so desperate for help that they won't get rid of the dead weight!
If they weren't on the schedule to begin with managers can't do anything if they decide not to show up, even if they agreed to come in. I've seen managers look the other way when people no called no showed because suspending or firing them would have made things worse. Management may find a way to get 'em later. Oh well.
They probably wrote you up cause without you they're screwed. lol.
you may have gotten screwed with your write up because where im at if you miss 3 days in a row and it's for the same thing it only counts as on incident against you.
Yeah...I noticed that certain stuff isn't as enforced as they should. Someone nc/ns'd twice in a row, and they kept her around because she claimed that she called to let them know what happened but the message didn't get relayed (highly doubt this). It took a 4th nc/ns to get her gone.
Just recently, someone was suspended for 3 days and the paperwork magically got lost, and thus the suspension was lifted. How the hell? Worse part is they've been a problem worker for a while, but union.
Maybe they had acsess to their employee file and disposed of all copies of said suspension. No suspension papers=no suspension. We've had a couple employees get into their own files an get rid of their recent write ups, suspensions etc. Now management wants to see about transferring all employee files to computer software that is password protected. That way write ups and suspension stay in play until the designated time until they go dormant
Well I know all that, but how would they get the papers to dispose of them if they're nowhere near the office? Wouildn't a store manager notice that it was missing? Even my manager was puzzled about it.
At our store it's kept in a cabnet that's supposed to be under lock and key. Supposed to.anagemwnt left it unlocked, and employees got into the cabnet, found their files, and got rid of suspension/write up paperwork. You'd think the corporate office would have a copy of the paperwork though...,

They should, actually. I seem to remember that I had to send a copy of any CAR type write up to the district office at least, not to mention that most store managers wanted digital copies as well. I know I saved every (and I mean every last write up) of mine over 8 years in my own file, digital and paper.
