Scooter and "dick time"

Another story of the infamous Scooter. Working at the shoe store this girl was a wreck. Used up all her "dick time" in less than 6 months. She'd call out before she would conveniently have two days off. I'm working one night and she calls. "Omg Bra Bitch, wipe down EVERYTHING. I just got told I have pinkeye." Mind you this is 8:30 at night. So I say "I'm sorry what?"

Scooter: "Yes I have pinkeye."

Me: "Scooter who exactly do you think is going to cover your shift?" (My boss was on vacay so we had 3 ish managers working.)

Silence. I essentially called her out on her shit. So I told her well there's no one was covering for her and that I would see her in the morning. Defeated she said fine. I called my boss and told her the situation, and she said we couldn't have her come in and contaminate the other employees but to have her bring in a doctors note. I called her back and relayed the info and then proceeded to call other stores to which I got a "You know it's 8:30 right?" response.

Flash forward a few days,she comes in and I ask to see her note. She brought me a note to basically get out of class from her school nurse. And my boss did nothing! I would've written her ass up. Unbelievable.

Remind me again why she wasn't fired a month in?

Well my boss got tired of me saying no to everyone we interviewed so she hired her without me talking to her. In the rest of the two years I was there no one got hired without my inspection. My boss was a little bit of a wuss and refused to write her up for anything (after finding out she was trying to get me fired which is a whole other story) and/or fire her. I even told her I would give her the write ups and be the bad guy and she still wouldn't let me :(

I fail to see a problem with her not wanting to infect people with pink eye. Was she underage and got a note from the school nurse, because unless your boss had a problem I don't see one. It could also be from a clinic a lot of my clients have to go to clinics for healthcare and some of those notes look pretty jenky.

Pinkeye isn't exactly something I would go to the doctor for either. I had it once when I was young and I basically stayed home one day from school - and I think it was mostly because my eyelid kept getting glued shut. I built a website that day. Next day I went to school and never did go to the doctor. I don't think it is particularly contagious unless you are touching the infected eye.
