Reason being, it would protect both the person who is sick, or unable to communicate in voice, and then also give a layer of protection to the company (if it were a policy).

So the bloke didn't want to speak to anyone and had more pressing things on his mind than his job and they rake him over the coals for it... My last 3 jobs, the bosses used to text me to say if they were going to be late or not in and there never was a problem. If Tile It All had an issue, why couldn't they have responed to his text or simply called him to say they needed an email to cover policy. Makes you think what would be going through the minds of these people if they suffered a family tragedy. What a bunch of heartless bastards.
