TheRaven said:Several years ago, I was based in DFW. Scheduling called on my day off to junior man me, and I listened to the details of the whole trip, then proceeded to explain I was on a frozen lake 180 miles north of Bangor ice fishing with some friends.....45 min snowmobile ride back to my truck for a 3 hr ride home to get cleaned up and begin my commute to DFW....I said with any luck I can be there tomorrow before noon....when does the trip start. Guess it was a lot sooner than that, cause they said thanks anyway and hung up.
TheRaven said:I always answer my phone.....I don't think they can fire you if you simply can't make it to work when they call...remember, a lot of people commute a long ways. What about child care? Getting junior manned at work is tough to weasel out of, but if you are at home and answer the phone, tons of excuses can make you unavailable. Tell em you aren't feeling well.....you aren't technically calling in sick cause its not your scheduled day to work. Its a good excuse to have a beer every 8 hours on your days off too.
