I have no idea why Gil’s mom and Shandra’s mom haven’t come to an understanding ages ago. They are neighbors, the kids are together most days anyway and they are in the same class at school. Therefore if Gil is off then Shandra is off. Why in the world don’t the moms pool childcare resources in times of emergencies?
Understandable? yes. Understanding? no. Truth is, management often penalizes workers for using their benefits – but small emergencies are exactly what ‘personal days’ are for.

This situation seems so much like Retail (Norm’s other comic)

By not wanting their workers to take personal days is to say they really don’t exist.
