15 minutes is just reactionary spitballing to exaggerate.

Most of my previous "office work" was primarily back end development, and the approach tended to be hands off from my supervisor. So long as work was getting done in a timely fashion, my hours and daily schedule was up to me. I much preferred that approach as opposed to rigid hours and direct management. I suppose different strokes here.

Dude, what? I might be misunderstanding but there's a huge difference between 15 minutes and four days? Or even between "hands off" supervision and no one looking to see why she hadn't clocked in or out for DAYS? Or even just looking in the cubical?

Like... The employer definitely bears responsibility for being this neglectful. It goes way beyond "hands off" lol

That's pretty fair. If she was an ofp employee I can see why her boss might not have tabs for 4 days but reading that she was a fairly new hire I assumed she'd be under closer supervision for awhile.
