My manager has a meeting today about call outs and sick hours. I know in the past my managers have been very lenient with call outs and not firing people who should have been a long time ago bc of call outs and being late. They said today that from now on even if you have the sick hours to cover, any call out will count towards the 16 call outs before getting fired. Is this an actually corporate policy? Or are my managers trying to scare us into not calling out at all anymore bc of their own negligence in the past?
