(kind of a long one) written up for using the bathroom while i was the only bartender during slow hours.

going to try and not give too much info out. but, to keep a long story relatively short, i have gastro issues that make me poop my brains out multiple times a day. management has been informed of this before. last week, i called out on a saturday for mental health reasons. managers know i lost a friend very recently to drugs, so it's been rough. they were understanding… up until now. i texted my manager well in advance, like 12 hour's advance about not coming in. he basically said suck it up and come in, or you'll be reprimanded. i chose my health over work. i called out anyway. the day i come back, not even an hour after i clocked in, i am called into the office. told that i left the bar unattended for over 20 minutes one day, and that the new girl (who loves to…

last week, i called out on a saturday for mental health reasons. managers know i lost a friend very recently to drugs, so it's been rough. they were understanding… up until now.

i texted my manager well in advance, like 12 hour's advance about not coming in. he basically said suck it up and come in, or you'll be reprimanded.

i chose my health over work. i called out anyway.

the day i come back, not even an hour after i clocked in, i am called into the office. told that i left the bar unattended for over 20 minutes one day, and that the new girl (who loves to tattle and lie) had to service “10-12” members while i was gone. then, he asks if i remember this. i again explain my condition and that i have to leave and use the bathroom and can't help it, but that there's no fucking way i was gone for that long. he then says another manager came down here, and i had left the “help yourself” sign up for over 30 minutes and went on a break. lies. all lies. i knew it wasn't true but he succeeded in gaslighting me. i signed the write up. stupid, ik.

anyways, a few days later, i am talking to some supervisors and employees involved. come to find out, the first incident in question (that i had trouble remembering), my friend was IN THERE WHEN IT HAPPENED. he told me that i hadn't even been gone long enough to open the bathroom door, the new girl walks in, demands to know where I was, and then two or three- NOT ten, NOT twelve- guests come in and order drinks.

she inflated the story to make herself look like a victim and me look like a slacker.

the second incident, where allegedly another manager reported me for being gone “over thirty minutes”, i asked the manager in question and she said THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED. i think she lied tbh tho, because she then threw a really trustworthy supervisor who ik wouldn't lie on me under the bus, and said he was the one that complained on me! but i remember that day, and that's so not what happened. i asked him to go on break, and he was off doing something else so he said it wasn't a good idea to. so i didn't.

so there's at least two people lying here, and i am sick and tired of it. there's so much drama, and me getting written up for something that's literally a medical condition was the last straw. i put my notice in. they didn't seem surprised. idc anymore. i am LEAVING!
