Am I going to get fired?

Hello. I work at a theme park and I accidentaly forgot to come one day. I've been working for a month. When I first read my schedule it said that on sat and sun I have to work from 11-7. I guess my supervisor added some hours on Friday from 2-7. When I read it, I didn't see a schedule for Friday. I went to work today at 11 and they told me to go home and that they'll call me. Apparently I still have a schedule for Sunday. I also had to go to a doctor on Friday anyways, since I was having trouble hearing in my left ear. Do you think they'll fire me?

    You should be ok as long as this is the first day you have missed. If you have already called in a couple times in a month they might fire you though

    Probably not if it was an honest mistake. I would leave out the part about the doctor when you talk to them. Your side of the conversation should consist of "I'm so sorry--I didn't think I was scheduled. It won't happen again." It's expensive to hire and train employees so businesses try to avoid turnover when possible.
