My job is only part time, and I get paid minimum wage. However, as I am only a teenager, I figure that at least I'm lucky to have a job right before the start of summer, only,I didn't go into work yesterday. Not on purpose, though. I don't even know if I had work since I entered the date and time in to my cellphone as an allday event, so I'm not sure if I really did miss work, or if I have to go in today. It's one or the other.
My boss doesn't like his employee's to be late since it's a small family business, so I'm a bit worried about what to do since wednesdays are normally busy, and if I did have to go in yesterday but didn't, than he'll be even more upset.
Can anybody give me advice on what to do, or say, to my boss if it turns out that I did miss work, and maybe a subtle way to find out whether or not I did miss it before I go in to work today? Thanks!

What bosses look for more than anything these days is dependability but we all make mistakes. Explain to your boss, even if writing if you need to, exactly what happened and maybe talk to the boss about how you can remember. BE patient with yourself,sounds like at least you care. that is wonderful

Well i would ask for a schedule of some kind. I see it odd that your boss would not tell you when and what time to be at work. But if you didn't know if you had to be there or not i would just tell him that you didn't know. And if you did miss i would apologize and ask if you could make it up by working extra time.

Do you feel your life is not your own you sound like you are being bulleid or at least feel like it
think about a business you could start on your own if you fail thats Ok you are young most entreprenuers it is found in America , fail 6 times before they make it .
At least youll be able to put your own ideas in tm practice and an employer will be impressed by your initiative at tleast untill you setup your second business you could find it addictive

Just go in, apologize, and tell the boss that it will never happen again (and mean it!). That's the best you can do.
