I’m literally throwing up at work, with a fever, pale as a ghost, and already passed out. Boss says I just don’t want to work….
As the title says. I’m sick, have been all week. I’ll get fired if I don’t show up for my scheduled shifts and my boss is actually going to try and force me to work more hours this week too because I dared to take off a day for being sick as a dog.
I have a fever, severe cough, and I already passed out once today. Not going great so far. Just threw up too almost in front of patrons and I can feel it coming back again.
I told my boss I might need to leave so can she please find someone to cover for me. She just smacked her lips and gave me a sassy remark about how this generation won’t work and always wants to leave and stay home and apparently this is a habit for me now….. Yikes…big yikes.
Netizens’ comments
- This is where you get the help of friends. People that your boss doesn’t know. Have them come in as customers who notice you are sick and then raise the roof and ask to speak to the manager. Then they can berate and chastise the manager for having a sick employee on duty.
- Make it public. Throw up in front of customers. If you’re feeling light headed and are going to pass out make sure it’s in the middle of the dining room. That way you have a case if they try to fire you over it.
- Throw up on a patrons table and then say you were told to come to work or be fired.
- Time to find something else it sounds. I’d walk out of it were me. That’s just torture.
