I’m not getting a COVID-19 raise anymore

I recently posted here about potentially losing my job due to being sick. Luckily I didn’t lose my job, but I lost my COVID-19 raise. Because of COVID-19 and the quarantine, my job offered a pay raise of $2.50 which would’ve been a total of $14.50 an hour for working during the pandemic, however you automatically forfeit the raise if you call off for any reason, including illness. Because I called off twice I no longer get my raise. I honestly think this is bullshit and not fair. $2.50 was hardly a raise, but I needed the money. I’m trying to save up for a car, and I need at least 3k for a decent car. I’m just frustrated with this.
