No call no show

Hi all. I didn't go to work today because I was having a bad mental health day. I should feel bad about it, but I kind of don't. I really don't like my job. My manager doesn't care if you call in for physical issues, let alone mental health issues. Last time I called out with a migraine, and my manager texted me saying "Can't you just take something and come in? We're short staffed."


So needless to say, I was too scared to call in, because I don't need the guilt trip.


Things have have just been really hard for me lately. I really need a new job. But I also don't have a car right now, so it's difficult to look for work.


Idk I'm just not happy with myself today. Anyone else have days like this?

I understand and used to call those day... my "Ferris Bueller day off." .....

While at some times we all hate our job and need a new one it takes time sometimes to change jobs so I did not risk losing the one i had. 

Most places will guilt you into we are short already or many other items like there is a deadline.etc. that is their job to do i have been on both sides if you think the guilt was bad in a call wait until they question you or some places will write up a no show.
