US politicians can disappear from their jobs for 6 months without losing them. Meanwhile, you or I disappear for 3 days and it's job abandonment.
I'd say the US government was a funny joke if it wasn't at our expense.
Try 1 day, or even a few hours late
These fucking ghouls
I hope this person still has tormentuous moments of lucidity where she feels nothing but pain and fear
i got absolutely bombed one night before work, missed my alarm and woke to a voicemail from my boss telling me i was "terminated". it was only 2 hours into my shift.
i didn't care at all to be honest because i wasn't planning on being a prep cook for the rest of my life anyway
Fair point. I had an employer who would write people up for being 1 minute late at one point. I was only considering the job abandonment aspect, not the other parts.
I love how american democracy has devolved into a cascade of Weekend at Bernie's gags. Feinstein, Biden, McConnel come to mind. What is really strange is that this isn't seen as a scandal. Getting a BJ from a staffer will kill your career in politics but being a shambling corpse puppet is perfectly acceptable.
