Am i correct?

I don’t know guys…how would you feel about this? I’m a waitress at a chain restaurant, i’m considered a pretty strong server, am I the best server? No, far from it. I get complaints from time to time due to me having a hard time getting yelled at by customers for yelling at me for things beyond my control. With that being said, any time i’ve had an issue, i admit to my wrongs, never have I ever had anyone accuse me of being a liar, ever. That’s just not who i am. Fast forward to tonight, restaurant is still a mess 30 minutes after close. We receive a phone call, i go to answer it and by the time i picked it up, there was a busy signal so i just hung it up, no big deal. The manager comes rushing by and asks “did you just hang up…

With that being said, any time i’ve had an issue, i admit to my wrongs, never have I ever had anyone accuse me of being a liar, ever. That’s just not who i am. Fast forward to tonight, restaurant is still a mess 30 minutes after close. We receive a phone call, i go to answer it and by the time i picked it up, there was a busy signal so i just hung it up, no big deal. The manager comes rushing by and asks “did you just hang up that phone?!” I said, “yes, but there-“ She responds with “wow, i can’t believe you just hung up that phone because you didn’t want to deal with it.” I explained to her that yes, i did hang it up, but not until after i said hello and there was a busy tone. She proceeded to get right in my face and yell at me, saying there’s nothing she hates more than liars and that’s just what i am, a big liar. I still tried telling her that no one was on the other end but she wouldn’t let me get a word in edgewise, saying i already said i hung it up and that’s all she needed to hear and left. Was she in the wrong to act like she did? She has worked with me long enough to know i’m not a bad person or a liar. I don’t think i need to work with anyone who views me as a liar, doesn’t seem like i’ll ever be able to rise above her thoughts on me.
