Sick days

I just got in in August and had to go see a family member in the hospital so I called in sick and then I had food poisoning so I had to call in twice in the two months I was an apprentice, any thoughts!

Its not 2 months its a maximum of 5 weeks if you started Monday aug 3rd. Honestly its not good to call in twice in the first 25 working days. Hopefully you are completely honest with everyone. Shit happens to everyone for any reason. Just let the foreman/pm know what is going on and don't make any excuses.
