call off

Contemplating whether or not to call out so you can spend time with your family tonight for Christmas Eve? Then do it. Family is not forever, as I learned the hard way. Even a year later I am still angry with myself for not having the balls to call out last Christmas Eve. And I missed out on...

So I’m still in the 90 day trial period of working bc I was hired for a seasonal position. On Wednesday I called out because I was sick and then today I called out because I was actually on my way to work and I got into a car accident. When I let them know, they weren’t that understanding and...

So yesterday they were trying to reach me to work today on the Signing for the Ad, but I never answered my phone. They were calling a lot until I send a text to someone who was trying to reach me, and told him I was out of town. I just checked right now and on Kronos I was scheduled. I never...

So I’ve been with the bullseye gang for over a year, and in that span I’ve called out a total of 1 time. It was sometime during the spring, I think. I am planning to call out from a relatively short (less than 6 hours) shift this week because I just need a friggin break. I’ve got exams for...

Sort of a vent, sort of looking for reassurance: I only callout when I'm sick. In over 2-years in SL (now Shoe tm) I always am in and ready to work. Tomorrow will be the first time I call out. No lying I'm sick, or using any reason. But there IS a reason, of course...HR keep screwing me in the...

How many call offs are “allowed” per 6 months? I know at Walmart it’s 9 in a 6 month rotation.

I had to call out yesterday because I couldn’t stop throwing up. But I’m seasonal at guest service and wanted to stay on with the company. Guess I should look for other jobs.. How often do seasonal TMs even get to stay on?

If I need to call out on Sunday what time of day do I do it (I work at 1:30pm) and do I call the store and if so who do I ask for and if not what number should I call. It is for a school activity so I don't think there should be any issues and HR even said I should call in I just dont know how.

So our STL just implemented correctives for calling out on weekends for any reason. Says it's on account of bad attendance. Apparently not even a doctors note would change it. Seems cruel for those of us that are super dependable. Even heard an ETL say she thought it was too much. And I'm...

Hey all, Tomorrow I am heading on a small trip I've known about for a while. I have a shift tomorrow morning and Monday night closing. I listed both of my shifts to be picked up for around a week now and also talked to many other team members in my section about someone picking them up for me...

Yesterday I was scheduled to work but I had car issues so I couldn't actually come into work. However, I called the store and they transferred me over but no one responded. I had no way to get to work and no one responded; today I tried to log into my target account to check my pay and it says...

I made a simple mistake today. Thought I worked tomorrow and not today. I've had amazing attendance and have worked here since Nov. 3 of 2017, so almost a year. I've had one other instance of this back in March, I think. I was given a corrective action but I can't remember how long I had to get...

So, I started at target at the beginning of August. I'm coming up on 60 days, however my question is; About 3 weeks after starting I had an emergency which landed me in the hospital over night, I called out and it was fine, I gave a doctors note and that was that.. But now I have the...

My TL just said target doesn’t accept doctors notes to excuse a sick day, is that... legal?

Okay guys, I am new to this. I was hired August 30th and have worked my shifts on time without issue for the last two weeks. I was even sick and coughing my last 2 shifts. Woke up Friday (yesterday) AM with ZERO voice. Ended up at urgent care and they said I need vocal rest til at least Monday...

I plan to call out a couple times during my season position due to some upcoming events that I have planned. I've requested a day off in advance but there's other things that I know might come up and I have no issue calling out. How do stores usually react to this when evaluating my work ethic...

I have an event coming up this week that I totally forgot to request off. I’ve literally asked everyone to cover me and no one is able to. Would I be in trouble/ written up if I called off for a non emergency situation? I’ve literally only called off once in the time I’ve worked at target so I’m...

I don't know if it's just my store or if every Target is doing this now. If you call off its an automatic coaching. I called off today because I wasn't feeling well and my LOD said to bring in a doctor's note so that it won't count against me. Now, my attendance isn't bad but why is Target or at...

I was wondering what all the accruals on the pay stub mean. Is the "sick remaining" all the sick hours I can use? Also, how do I use these hours after calling off? Also, I have available vacation hours, too and I am unsure of how those hours work.

So today I couldn’t make it in to work because of feeling ill and I start at 4am. I’ve been calling since 3:20am and no one has been answering the phone. I rarely call out which is confusing as to why no one is picking up. What should I do? I have proof I’ve called them about 30 times so them...
