Talk About Going to Extremes to Get Out of Work!

An ex-employee’s child called in, said their mom was having a seizure and they were scared and didn’t know what to do, but Mom couldn’t come in. I told them to call 911. I then called 911. Found out they lied; 911 called me back and told me the house they showed up to was empty. They just wanted to get out of work. People are crazy! — Caitlin Neal, San Juan Eye Center, Montrose, CO
