Kroger, I thought I had a fowl proof equation of  requesting every 5 or 8 days off so you would not screw me over with an 8+ day work week. Once in a blue moon you'll screw me over by not honoring one of those day off requests. Sorry kroger, each time I work 7+ days in a row I always get sick after day 7 and you loose me for 5-7 days after that. For the sake of my health I am calling out on day 5. Screw you! I call out one maybe 2 times a month if even that. Lately I've not had to call out for a while now and I think I'll call out for this scenario. Stop over exploiting your workers to exhaustion. Then complain and b---itch up a storm when they get sick due to exhaustion. Then wine how sh---it ain't getting done because an employee gets sick due to exhaustion.
