what debate... FIRED!!!
Are they paid to attend workout sessions during work hours, or paid to attend work meetings during work hours.
“Sorry, dude, I’m just not into meetings that early.”..............
Wait until they get a job dealing with international companies when you have to be on a conference call at 5am or 11pm, sometimes on the same day.
Ahhh ... generational stereotyping; a sure sign of a weak mind ...
telling their boss
"Their"? That's a plural form of personal pronoun. "His boss" or "Her boss" is correct.
couldn't attend an 8 a.m. meeting because they had a 'workout class.'
No. That's normal business hours.
Trying to get fired and suck-up that nice severance package ,LOL
Of course the emplooyee can refuse to attend. And, of course the employer can fired her snowflake ass.
Exactly, what debate...
This is a mandatory meeting, you attend or you are fired.
Period.
Why the hell are pronouns disagreeing in number? I can’t read this garbage and make sense of it.
These cry babies don’t know what work is, When I was working on rigs in the oil field, 16 hours a day, 6 days a week! if you said something like that you were not only fired on the spot, you were blackballed and nobody in the oil field would hire you.
My favorite Gen Z story.
We lost track of an employee for a few days—he was supposed to be in the NYC office and they had not heard from him and he was not answering his home phone or cell phone.
Everybody figured he has just quit...
Until the folks in the Los Angeles office saw him walk into their office.
He explained he had decided to move to LA and join their office.
The big bosses were stunned—never heard of anything like that before....
Their decision was to tell him to report to the New York City office by the next morning or he was fired...
He got on a plane and showed up in the NYC office the next day.
Fire their asses. Then they can work out all day long.
The good old days...
Oh you wont attend my meeting because you’re working out at that time? No problem, you’re fired.
yup. I hired someone, gave them the hours expected to work and they showed up and said “I can’t come in at 9 tomorrow. I have a brunch I do with friends EVERY WEEK”
ya, well we open at 9 every day of the week, just like I told you when I hired you. So enjoy your brunch tomorrow you can go home now
“but the brunch is tomorrow”
ya well you were let go today.
The mistake here is sharing work related issues to the public.
This might have more to the story regarding work related hours or salary hours.
Don’t share the work related issue online.
the meeting is a quarterly affair so the employee is responsible to be there.
Be there or report to HR when you do get in, they will have some paperwork for you to sign.
even having to talk about this gives me little hope for gen Z as a whole. They are lazy, self absorbed, entitled, overspending, toxic personalities
If this employee was hired with the expectation that he’d be starting work every day at 9:00AM, then I’m on his side — and it doesn’t matter what he’s doing at 8:00. If the employer had made it clear that an occasional early meeting was part of the expectations for the position, then I’m on this employer’s side.
In either case, I don’t think the employee is doing himself any favors here.
