    I don’t think not volunteering to come in on your day off when your boss hasn’t even asked you to do so yet indicates a “lack of empathy.”

      Agreed. I’d also expect a boss in a bind to offer extra compensation for time scheduled like that. I dont see any offers of double pay or even just time and a half. Thats undignified and disrespectful.

      Noooo you always have to be ready to run to your minimum wage job at a moments notice even though your employer will send you out on your ass the very second the numbers start looking red!!

      Nobody wants to work anymore a bloo bloo bloo!!1

      ikr the worker is literally showing empathy. Personally I wouldn’t even have answered the text unless I needed the money.

      They didn’t say that. But it might be empathetic to interpret their message in the obvious way and say, “I can’t cover”.

      But that would require this not to be a fake screenshot made up as a joke, because it would ruin the joke.
