    Bleh. We might be back to just me and mom running the business. We really like our new employee but she called out again today. Just added it all up. She's been here 13 weeks and called out for: the whole day, or came in late (she opens the office) or was out part of the day on 14 separate days. All are good reasons but, 14 times in 13 weeks?

    Am I being a massive Boomer here or is that a bit excessive? Is that normal for the younger generations?

    talk to her and find out what the issue is.

    Find out if it's something that will remain consistent or can be changed. Perhaps she has some issues going on. IDK. Doubt anyone here knows.

    But I think you should talk to her in the very least.

    That IS a lot. However, is it one of those situations where someone she has to take care of has a chronic disease/disability? (or something serious like that) Or...just comes up with a good excuse each time? Either way, I know you want to be nice, but you have a business to run.

    I'm on the borderline between Millennial and Gen Z (1996 baby), and yeah, that's a lot. I agree with the rest though that it probably deserves a conversation to see if there is a bigger issue behind it.

    Property Management. We are a small office of just 3 people. My boss(mom) and I can run it alone if we know it's just us, but it requires jugging and we're growing so we need a third person. When a third person unexpectedly calls out so often...we're stuck. Like today I had a doctor appt this morning so could NOT open the office. Mom had to rearrange her schedule to get here. That is not the first time this has happened.
