Reddit Scams My Amazon Guy

What it's like to run a company.
You check on employees who sometimes no show with no notice

You set a standard that behavior is not acceptable
And they immediately quit

This is a real exchange with an employee today
The whole situation is bizarre 

Without a computer you can't work, I get it
But you can't ghost your employer a few days into the job and expect things to work out

I didn't even fire them for no-showing once
I just said "don't do it again" to set a standard

I think I was being generous - to no show no comm a few days into a job is probably an employers most confident firing ever

I will never know what truly was going on - what we see here is the scratch of the surface

Maybe they had a 2nd job lined up and we were the backup date

Edit: I called this person several times, with no answer. Thus the Slack msg waiting for him to respond and cutting to the chase.
