I've never really understood him and I understand him even less now. The guy was in Afghanistan and frequently in combat there. My first impression was that he really cares about production, in fact he told me flat out that if production suffers, I'm out of there. I got fired by him when I refused to show up as I had a fever, it looks like the union is going to sue the company.
What's so extremely confusing is the way we said goodbye. In that conversation, days after i was fired, he told me his dad has lung cancer and this virus is a nothing burger. He told me not a day goes by that he doesn't have a headache, that he didn't believe i was being truthful, and for good reason i admit but I was. Then he told me that if I need a recommendation he will give it and that if I need to talk to him he's always there, that he thinks i was just trying to keep people safe.
I think he's just impulsive but with a good heart. I wanted to hear you say that though so thanks for that kook. Feel like I might have done something wrong by staying at home with my fever but Nha.

Usually you just don’t get fired for calling out sick unapproved once, you probably have a litany of issues in your personnel file

Like for a job at Taco Bell or Ralph’s maybe but you have a union so it’s surprising

Well i mean, maybe I was almost sick every month for a day. I was though going through some financial and mental problems, so my diet was shit, and these were not average hours. Plus I worked more days than then what's normal with a lot of over time. Plus it was in the contract that I had a right to a sick day every month.
