Here’s a shocker:
Catoosa restaurant fires 12 workers for not showing up on ‘Day Without Immigrants’
In short, the restaurant has a strict “no show/no call” policy, which means if you don’t show up for work and you don’t call in to give them some sort of explanation and chance to bring in a replacement, then they fire you. And this is not an unreasonable policy for a place that can be thrown into chaos if someone just plain doesn’t show up. And these twelve employees apparently didn’t bother to call in. So… there it is.
Now, if you perhaps feel some sort of sympathy for these poor workers, consider this:
“They feel like they’ve been unfairly terminated,” said a friend, translating for the employees.
Errrrmmmm….
“(They’ve) been working there for almost two years since the restaurant opened,” said the friend.
Two years these folks have been there, and they need someone to translate simple statements into simple English. It was perhaps unwise to hire them in the first place. It’s never good to reply on people who don’t understand the language.
