Let's be honest here, probies have gotten fired for texting while planes are taxiing and physically fighting each other at the training hotel - nobody has gotten fired for dropping trips on the Trip Board.
Newbies and potential newbies - keeping a low profile is never a bad idea while on probation, but if you show up when you're supposed to show up and do the job the way you're paid to do your job, the company isn't going to be looking for a reason to can you.
