mostly here just to vent. I went into the hospital recently for mental health problems and told my manager and assistant manager about it as to why I wasn't able to show up for my shifts that week (it was a mandatory 72 hour hold). I got back last week and realized that several people, if not everybody, knows that I went to the hospital and why. People were coming up to me asking me how I was doing since I got out (was at first appreciative of their concern and then realized that I had not told them where I had gone or why). On top of that, my manager made a joke about “how depressed I was” in front of several coworkers. I'm so embarrassed and frustrated. I've been wanting a new job for a while bc this one is exhausting and I don't get enough hours but this was my final straw. Honestly just want to never show up again and let them deal with it.
Some people have told me that I can probably take legal action with this bc of HIPAA but I don't think I have the time or energy to deal with all that with everything else in my life going on. I'm just done with this place and want to leave. Fuck them
Thanks for reading if you did. Just tired of places pretending like they care about you when clearly they don't give a fuck
