so beyond frustrated.

It doesn’t matter if they talk to you. You have to call off more than once a month for them to actually start the process of firing you.

It sucks for the consistent employees but there is a process to ensure that discipline is applied fairly and legally (I.e. not discriminatory.)
 
Sounds like that TL was dealing with some other stressors and you caught them at the wrong time. However, that’s not an excuse for them to talk that way to you.

I’ve taken many call outs, if the reason is valid and the team member has made attempts to get to work or call out earlier, there’s no issue. If you call out for “personal reasons” or “family emergencies” something vague, you go in the book and then a conversation to clarify your attendance issues will be held.

but sounds like you have a solid excuse and you already talked with an HR person, who should have taken you off the grid and put your shifts on the board. Guess they thought you’d make it in and just suggested calling out on the day assuming you couldn’t make it.

FYI, if you have the Mytime app on your phone, you can put shifts up for others to take (you can also pick up available shifts).
