Isn’t it insane when companies make mistakes on their end and blame their employees for it?

This guy shares how his company sent a wrong email and expected everyone to comply!

Check out the full story. 

No day off? No problem.

My job messed up. They planned to give us December 23rd through January 2nd off, with pay. But the first email they sent said December 22nd.

This is where it gets tricky!

So yesterday, when my whole team clocked in, we found out that they had meant we had to work through the 22nd.

So everyone who used their last PTO on Monday and Tuesday to leave for a full two weeks suddenly found they had to come in on Wednesday as well, use PTO they didn’t have left, or take a disciplinary day.

So, we all clocked in this morning.

UH OH…

And just sat there.

The manager on duty looked us in the eye and said, “I told them we should have honored the first email. I don’t give a crap if you don’t do anything all day. Have a great holiday.”

And since it’s work from home, I clocked in, watched TV, and did some holiday baking. Clocked out at the end of the day.

That’s interesting…

I’d rather be written up for “low productivity” than for being absent, since they can’t dock my pay for one day of low productivity.

YIKES!

Why would the company not double check their emails?
