[QUOTE="Lil, post: 699486, member: 17309"] Ah yes. And God forbid you tell them the right thing is to suck it up and go to work and do your job. We had a lovely melt-down at our house Saturday morning when son didn't want to go to work. Apparently, there is a rule about having to call in 2 hours before the shift - so 6 a.m.? I guess he planned on just doing a no-call/no show, which usually gets a person fired. He LOVED this job when he started. But some woman he works with made a remark that he was hung over and that's why he left early one day and the manager apparently told him that - it wasn't true, I drive him to work, I'd know if he was so hung over he couldn't work and (until Friday night) he'd always been at home the night before an early shift - but anyway he didn't want to work with her. Long story short, after a horrible fight in which he broke his bedroom door - the one we replaced - I lost it and told him to get out. He then begged to stay and Jabber had to calm everything down. But the question is, does he still have a job? He apparently talked to them - 1/2 hour after his shift was to begin and the manager was unhappy - gee :erm: imagine that. I guess we'll know tomorrow when he's scheduled to work again. Yes, his no-show was the day before his two days off, effectively giving him a 3-day weekend. What does a boss think of that? I think all of us know exactly what a boss thinks of that. :( I personally find it much easier when my son does not live with us. We set a deadline for him to be out by the end of October. I'm done being yelled at for saying the things any mother would say and trying to get him to do the right thing. If he doesn't want to put up with it, he needs to be somewhere else. When he's in my house, his job, his LIFE, is my business and he's my kid. When he's not, it's much easier for me to say, "You're a grown man. Figure it out." and stick to it. Sorry for the hijack. Guess I needed to get that out. But all in all, I agree with Pasajes - it's her job and her life - if you aren't financing it. [/QUOTE]
