"...which tells a lot about your new manager"
Or the old manager or the corporate structure of communications itself. There are a lot of people in this chain that can be/are wrong.

Yeah, the new manager can't be entirely blamed. But the whole point that the sick policy depends entirely on the manager when you have a central app...
Time-keeping app > Employee : Unable to fulfill service > (App : Checks shift manager, send email) > Manager notified
No more need to have a list of managers. If my wife is KO'd I don't want to have to second-guess how to call her sick.

Old manager/orientation

Doesn't sound like it to me, sounds like the sick policy involves texting/calling the manager first, otherwise this post would be about "My manager did not follow the sick policy" instead of "I followed an old/ad hoc sick policy"

So you're going to login for your wife on her work app? I've worked for a few companies where that'd get your wife KO'd from a job as well. Also, apps can go down, wifis can go down. The quickest/most reliable way to contact anyone not physically in one's presence is via phone.
The lesson here is always know employment policies, especially when under new management.
