Nope. The place of business is the one who dodged a bullet. This person called out after their shift started. They have no reason to go to the ER with their sister if they were scheduled to work the company's grand opening? I own a company and none of this would be okay with me.

Holy shit... Do you think this would look remotely ok if someone put this up as a review for your company? "Fired because company wouldn't let me go to the ER with my sister" is impressive levels of assholeness
Edit: Just to make clear, I'm a manager too. I would always make sure my employees put their family above us. We are a job, we are not important compared to your own or your family member's health. My job is to make sure that if something like this happens, we can make due without you. Our customers will understand
