Idk, like why did she get fired? Usually though, it's supposed to be done right when you clock on, though this should honestly change to them calling you before you come in/texting you to call them if you don't pick up.

Overnights are tricky because management can't be bothered to come in early or be there late

because management can't be bothered

and that's the issue.

It’s more that businesses will now only hire 1 manager to cover an operation that operates round the clock 7 days a week instead of paying overlapping supervisors so there is always a day and night manager present to deal with issues as they come up and properly support the staff

Usually the HR person fires someone at a hotel that can't be bothered to come in at 7 instead of 8

Overnight people are generally self sufficient and can handle themselves without a manager, she must not have been though

I bet the next time they need to let go of an overnight person they'll either deal with HR complaining about coming in at 7am or ask them to wait for a meeting instead of giving them busy work
