Thanks, I should have said I've had it put in as a personal day but being that it's Sunday management isn't around so I have no idea if it will actually be accepted. Have you had this happen to you or seen this happen to others? If so, what transpired?

Hi all, So I agreed to an OT shift just over a month ago and forgot about it! My husband also had agreed to an extra shift the same day and this morning, when he was almost out the door I got a call from my work saying I was in the schedule for today. I have no childcare and apologized profusely but said I can't come. This is technically my fault and is probably considered a "no show". However I did call back immediately and have a good reason for not coming. It will be taken as a personal day. Is this ground for termination? I fully take responsibility but I need to keep my job and support my family, I'm reminded of people who have to leave immediately after showing up because they've become sick 'suddenly'. Technically this incident puts an equal amount of strain on the organization, but will it be viewed differently?
