Basically, she has partial dentures, and her partial fell one morning and broke because she accidentally tossed her towel on it after she got out of the shower. She called the dentist, and he told her to bring it in on Tuesday, and she could pick it up on Wednesday.

She's a nurse, and her shifts are Sunday - Thursday, 6:30am - 2:30pm. So, she had to ask someone to cover her shifts, and then volunteered to work a double on Friday, which was one of her days off.

She did this, and they didn't say anything to her until Tuesday of this week, when they fired her for missing two days of work and not giving them "proper notice". So, she's been a nurse for almost 40 years, and they pulled this crap on her.

Not to mention she's been with this particular company for 15 years...

I'm fuming.
