Do you think this will result in termination?

Ask to speak to her first if she hasn't already called you in.

Tell her you understand that the amount of time that you've called out has been more than desired lately. Explain what has been going on in your life that created this situation. Tell her how much you love your job and are afraid that it's at risk and that you will make every effort possible to correct this situation.

If she agrees to give you another chance. DO NOT call out again unless you are on your death bed....even then, you will need a doctors note.

Good luck.

You need to be honest with your supervisor about what had been going on. Calling out sick because of family issues is inappropriate. If you want to keep your job you need to make going to work a priority.

I didn't call out sick due to family issues, though I did have to have my schedule changed because of family issues, I gave ample amount of time with the family stuff.

I agree with what this poster wrote.

Most places have policies for such things, and if an employee doesn't meet the policy, there's also a policy for what the boss must do.

I think explaining what happened, that things are better, and that you have a plan to stick to assigned hours in the future might help. It surely won't hurt.

I was so traumatized by the sudden conversation I had with her that I forgot half of what happened over the phone and it slowly came back to me over the weekend. I resigned to keep my employment record clean. Thank you for all of the advice!

I hate to say this, but quitting doesn't mean it looks good. If a future employer asks why you left a job and you plan on being honest about why you quit, it's just the same as being fired and it looks like you gave up instead of seeing it through.

You can also be marked as ineligible for rehire which can look bad to prospective future employers.

I am sorry to hear this. I hope that you will be able to find work soon, and I would just be truthful that the reason you had so many missing days was bad luck being sick, and that it is not something that you intend to make a habit of, and then try to make it a personal goal for yourself that you will do your best at being more dependable.

I would say that if you are calling out a lot for whatever reasons then your employer is going to want to know what is going on. I don't know how your employer thinks but I personally wouldn't let my family issues get in the way of going into work, like if there was nobody to take care of my grandparents who live in town and they needed me then I could see where I would ask off. Just be honest with your manager and try not to miss so much work, because missing will eventually hurt you in the long run, and then when you try to find another job and you use that place as a reference then they may not give you the best reference in the world. Good luck!
