"I'm glad it doesn't bother you at all when one of your subordinates continually calls out. I'd like to have a boss like you."
Well most of my subordinates are dancers, who as we've established, are expected to miss work so it's all fine. It's the non-dancers who I'll have to start kicking to the curb.
The point people are trying to make is that if Ms. Lewis keeps calling out it certainly isn't because of the physical demands of the role.
I've been trying to make that same point.
It's either because she's a sickly woman (if she is using sick days), her voice can't handle singing a song eight times a week (seems unlikely), or quite honestly has a shoddy work ethic if she's taking vacation and personal days a month into her job.
Or a slew of other reasons, none of which would cause concern to the people running the production, and certainly not reason enough for the faux-outrage around here.
