For instance, we just had a snow storm here in Ohio and where i live we got over a foot of snow and we had a Level 3(which means only emergancy vehicles and anyone else on the road if you absolutly have to be)....anyways...i wasn't going to be on the road unless where i work was open...*i work at a grocery store*..and some grocery stores wern't open...so i called twice and nobody answered so i just assumed we wern't opened..half an hour into what would have been my shift, they call and asked where i was. and if i was coming into work....i did go in..but i still don't get why they wouldn't answer my calls...and it wasn't like i called back right away..i called at different times before my shift...and i let it ring....
but anyways..why do employers have bad communications with employees?*this was the first time i was late for work*

Communication is a problem at lots of companies. Remember this was an abnormal situation and just talk with your supervisor and explain what happened. If you are a good employee, they will work with you. It is possible they did not have a back up plan for bad weather days. If you discuss the issues with a supervisor, then maybe they will work on something for the future.

A blonde goes into a nearby store and asks a clerk if she can buy the TV in the corner.
The clerk looks at her and says that he doesn't serve blondes, so she goes back home and dyes her hair black.
The next day she returns to the store and asks the same thing, and again, the clerk said he doesn't serve blondes.
Frustrated, the blonde goes home and dyes her hair yet again, to a shade of red.
Sure that a clerk would sell her the TV this time, she returns and asks a different clerk this time.
To her astonishment, this clerk also says that she doesn't serve blondes.
The blonde asks the clerk, "How in the world do you know I am a blonde?"
The clerk looks at her disgustedly and says,"That's not a TV -- it's a microwave!"

I think it is because they (upper management or owners) believe they are superior and that everyone is replaceable.
That was how it was where I used to work. Many people quit and went to a competitor to work with better conditions and the place I used to work had to totally rebuild their experienced work force.
I don't think they learned their lesson. Oh well.

It's all part of a conspiracy, if you want to know the truth.
