CB COMPANY TELLS STAFF, IF ATTENDANCE BELOW 97%, THEIR SALARY WILL MINUS 50%

My job just told us that is u have less than a 97% attendance rate u get a reduction in pay by 50%. I’m about to quit, it’s my last day anyway.

But that’s just crazy. I might not even work today I start my new job Monday. I just need the money but I’m really thinking about how bad I need it …

Edit: for reference this place was apparently voted on e of the worst places to work in 2017

I took a 45min lunch when it’s only 30😌 . They’re literally lucky I’m even here today lol

I mean it’s a company wide email. It’s a crappy call center job. And there have been other company emails about call avoiding, so I’d say that.

Regardless I’m leaving. This place it terrible.

Netizens’ comments

1. They want you to leave. I’d go in and do nothing.
2. Do literally nothing today. Stay, get paid, do not lift one finger.
3. You can’t expect an employee to continue to perform if you reduce their pay like that. If I had my pay reduce because of my attendance, I’ll reduce my performance by 50%.
4. Just start showing up 46% & you’re back on top.
5. It just means if you miss a day, you might as well miss half your days and look for someplace new to work
6. Sounds like too much bullshit for me. I’d take a long weekend and focus on the new job that starts Monday if I were you. It’s a gorgeous day out there and I sure wouldn’t waste it on a place like that.
7. Management: This will be a great way to increase attendance. Also Management: Stop quitting guys, we were joking about the pay cut hahaha
8. Yeah. Definitely quit. If a company can’t get past the fact that life happens (sickness, accidents, children issues, etc), then every body in that company will be docked 50% at some point. Everyone should just quit. That’s some kind of dystopian bullshit right there.
