[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your former boss is nuts! Be glad you’re away from her.

However, you should have worked with a sprained ankle.  You do not call in sick your second week of work unless you’re hospitalized!  [/quote]

+1. I wish people, especially this young generation, understood this!  Not calling in sick in the first months is essential in any job anywhere!  If you, as a childcare provider, have acquired a contagious illness you must provide proof (doctor’s note, verification).  [/quote]

OP here. I agree and try to be reliable but life happens. Have you worked on a sprained ankle? I couldn’t even put any weight on it without being intense pain. I couldn’t walk. I care for a very active child who is constantly running around and getting into things. There was no way I could work if I couldn’t even stand. I had to use crutches to get around for 3 days.

You should have gone to work on crutches.  Let your employer see you were truly injured and let it be her decision to let you do sit down games with the kids or let you go home.

You have to pay attention to this advice, OP.  You cannot do this again.  Just shut up with the excuses and promise yourself you will never call in sick in your first months of a new job again.  [/quote]
