'If your dog died, bring body in as proof': Olive Garden manager FIRED for threatening staff over leaves
KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: An Olive Garden restaurant manager in Kansas who told her workers that they have to bring their dog's corpse to work if they wanted time off to mourn a dead pet, has been relieved from her post. "If you're sick, you need to come prove it to us," the unidentified woman wrote in a memo to all staff. "If your dog died, you need to bring him in and prove it to us. If it's a "family emergency" and you can’t say, too bad. Go work somewhere else."
The manager also added that anyone who calls in sick more than once in a 30-day period would be fired from job. She concluded by thanking most employees for their hard work, "I hope you choose to continue to work here and I think we (management) make it as easy as we can on ya’ll. Thank you for your time and thank you to those who come in every day on time and work hard. I wish there were more like you."
