    I remember being in music class and for some reason the plug sockets were behind the seats so on keyboard day I stood up and on the way out tripped over a load of keyboard adapters ripping 4 of the keyboard wires right out the adapters I quickly swapped them and hide the broken ones in the store room

    Literally as I'm rushing out the door in a panic, half on the phone, because we have no idea where or how my Mum is, "I need to go NOW, my mums been in a car accident" "oh, um.... ok, will you be gone all day?"

    I wasn't exactly up for discussing timescales on when I can get back to earn my £1.50 an hour when I wasn't sure if my Mum was ok or dead.

    1. as someone who has employed people, and had my fair share of strange reasons for them to leave work at short notice.....i can see why they asked.. an employer employs you to do work. thus, if you aren't going to be there, then the work needs covering...sorry if it sound like lacking compassion, but employment is like that.
    2. you received a phone call at work telling you that she'd been in an accident, and the person on the other end of the phone didn't tell you how bad the accident was... did she get admitted to a&e?? what could you actually do to help?? etc... it sounds like a certain amount of over reaction, as she was ok, but your aunt with a bad back got off worse.. did you have the full day off??
    my mrs had her car speared by a truck & dragged down the road.. she was shaken up but pretty much ok, my boss wouldn't let me leave early as there wasn't anything i could do about it, she'd called recovery, and was on her way home. i was upset, but soldiered on till i could leave, then set off at speed. maybe us older people are a little less emotional than the younger generation.
