I am 17 years on the job and only called in sick for 2 days and I was phonecalled to tell me to bring a Dr's excuse. I rarely make mistakes and always in uniform, keep my equipment better than anyone else. My boss always finds time to write co-workers for negative tiny stuff but when he makes mistakes manager says that is ok because of his hard work which he doesn't even help us. The market shows that I am 15k underpaid and I mentioned to my general manager and he said that our company pays great to us, but I know he is lying. A co worker showed me his paycheck and I saw he makes almost $2 more than me and doesn't even do more than me, so I questioned my company and I was told that I could be suspended or even terminated for knowing that info.
