your manager=your boss= your job= your money=piss off the manager to much= you will have none of the above.
I work under a nazi regime of zero tollerance.
5 points and your gone!
1 point for a full day and 1/2 point for a 1/2 day.
even with a doctor excuse you miss you get points.
the points come off after a year.

If you piss off the man, the man will take a big dump on you, mostly managers are power and control freaks that get off on your agont and misery and love to add to it.
