Oh yeah, it was a pattern with her but even then, just leaving without warning the boss so they don’t have the chance to find someone to take over? That’s a perfectly fine reason to fire someone even with strong labor laws like we have around here. Hell, even the union didn’t want to touch that case with a 10’ pole.

Right but you should have said that first. The point of the post is not specifically to blindside your employer, IMO.

As I said, it doesn’t need to be a pattern for it to be a valid reason to fire an employee

The reason she was fired was not because she took time off, but because she didn’t disclose her time off.
Big difference.

The person you’re responding to is trying really hard to get you to understand that your story makes no sense in the context of this thread. As written, it sounds like she asked for time off and was denied. In fact, as you’ve said, she went awol and asked for forgiveness…which she did not get. That isn’t the point of this thread, which makes the very similar story confusing to seemingly everyone.
