Stay at home

By allidoiswrkwrkwrknomttrwht - This FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff

Today, I found out my request to have off on Thanksgiving for the first time in 6 years was denied, because I work the evening shift every year on Thanksgiving and that's convenient for everyone else. FML

Have you considered looking for a new job? I'd love to see an update where you find new job, put in two weeks notice in plenty of time before Thanksgiving, and end up with something better! That really does bite.

I feel you OP! I work in fast food, and I'm always working late shifts on Friday and Saturday nights. Ya know, when people are out partying and what not.

call in sick. go to an emergency center. get seen for a headache and you will have it off and be covered by medical reasons who cares if you dont get those boring 6 hours you can make up for it black friday.

hmmm, you sound kinda stuffed up, i hope you dont come down with a cold, would be terrible if you had to call in sick, say sometime around the 24th.

Are you the only one that hasn't gotten it off in those six years? If so I'd bring that up, because that's BS.

In 2020, you should be grateful they are saving your life and your relatives. You'll work in safety while everyone else goes to super-spreader events.

I’ve got this kind of problem when it comes to New Years

I heard you lost your taste of food and have flu like symptoms... it might be covid... you seem to need 2 weeks in quarantine..
