    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.

      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

      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.
