I know its a joke, but I had a coworker get into a car accident with an 18-wheeler on his lunch break. My bosses first words out of his mouth were, "can you make it back in today?" You could literally see the accident from our location.

Sounds like he could make it in then. /s

Same shit when my wife broke her ankle. "You can still make your shift tomorrow morning right?"

She received that text as she was screaming in pain in an ER getting her ankle reset and casted as it was broken in three places.

Charitable interpretation of that would be the boss asking if they're hurt enough not to work since then they'd need to get a replacement or something

Was working at a shitty fast food restaurant, and accidentally doused my entire forearm arm in boiling cheese sauce. While I was rinsing it off and wrapping it in gauze “can you hurry up? We’re opening in five minutes!”

Second degree burns, small patch was third degree and did tissue damage. I worked the rest of that shift.
