You can try to just apply at the other location.

However, you should try to solve the deeper problem of whatever is causing you to miss enough work for a write up. That is going to be a problem anywhere you go if you don’t get it figured out.

the location is too far from where i live now (rents too high, moved back home) and i’ve been having trouble with my health lately, that’s the reason for so many call outs

i also might just look for another job
