green dragon 10/20/19 6:55:19 PM #3:	never had that happen, very much doubt it will happen, unless I die or something lol. I get up like 5 hours before I'm supposed to be at my job. I will say once when I was 16 i got my days mixed up at a summer job, and came in an hour after my shift (i thought I was supposed t show up at 12, but actually had to be there at 11).No one really talked to me about it ( It was at a theme park) When I was in college I legit got stuck at a light for about a half hour (I was only like 5 minutes away from work, too).

LinkPizza 10/20/19 9:57:27 PM #24:	I don't think so. But I had some pretty close calls. When I worked at Pac-Sun, I forgot I had to work one day. But I got a call from this guy asking if I could cover the rest of his shift (I assume because my shift was next). I said luckily said yes, and went to work. When checking his schedule to see what it was, I saw I was on the schedule. So, that was lucky. I also ended up covering the shift after mine as the girl that came in to close broke her leg. So, two and a half shifts for me, that day. I was in high school and it was my first job, so I was actually pretty happy. About the money. Not the girl breaking her leg... At Target, I had some weird scheduling issues. Where I would ask for the day off. It would get approved by one person, and declined by another. Or one manager would say I could leave, and another would say not to. Or it would get approved, and then denied after. It was pretty bad. And once in the Air Force, I just woke up super late. I did call one person, but I don't even know if he told anyone. I said I was running late, but when I got there, no one knew. When I asked one guy if they had taken roll call, he said no. It was because of the exercise. People were all coming in at different times. Like no one except the guy I called and the guy I asked knew I was late... Wait! I don't have a couple. I worked at UPS. And once, I got there super early for some reason. And I could go in yet. And I fell asleep in my car. I didn't wake up until after work. They just called and it was no big deal. They just said to call next time... Before that, I worked at Subway. My last day, I was probably on the schedule. But I got a new phone number. My boss didn't have it, so he couldn't call me to give me my schedule. Which would have just been Saturday. He was cutting my hours. I just didn't go back.
