Notifying your employer that you can't work is the most basic of things.
Sure, if you're in the hospital with an emergency they'll hopefully forgive that you couldn't notify them, but if you're sick it's expected you tell somebody.

- boomboomsubban 2y ago"I had no internet or power" is an emergency situation they'd hopefully be lenient about. People seem to be taking this aspect in the worst possible way, when it also functions as a way to let your coworkers know you're ok.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoWell, if I'm being a bit cold: I haven't has a coworker check up on me in 7 years. It's only a natural extreme to move towards after the rejection of the whole "we're a family" narrative off yester-decade. Not that I have strong feelings about that. But none of the companies I worked at have ever felt like I could trust having a job if I had to spend a few days in the hospital.
