Boss got upset with me for using my phone because of lack of communication.

So I’m wearing a holter because my heart is way too erratic for somebody my age (early 20s) and told one of my two bosses that I need my phone to track any irregularities as it’s quicker than writing them down. She told me she’d tell my other boss. This was Thursday last week. Today the other boss came in and saw me on my phone-I was entering data on how I just had a sharp pang around my heart area. “Ope! Phone!” I look at her confused. “No phones. That’s going in the office until the end of the day”, she explained. Thank god my coworker came to my defense to explain it’s literally for my damn heart. “Oh……okay well as long as it’s okay with [your coworker]…..” Can they just “take away” our phones like we’re in high school like that? Like damn zero communication between the two…

Today the other boss came in and saw me on my phone-I was entering data on how I just had a sharp pang around my heart area.

“Ope! Phone!”

I look at her confused.

“No phones. That’s going in the office until the end of the day”, she explained.

Thank god my coworker came to my defense to explain it’s literally for my damn heart.

“Oh……okay well as long as it’s okay with [your coworker]…..”

Can they just “take away” our phones like we’re in high school like that? Like damn zero communication between the two bosses and it’s been four days they had to communicate this to one another.

Icing on the cake is their clear irritability that I need to see a cardiologist and hematologist for new health issues. They mix up my times I need off to go to them and act clearly upset with me for THEIR mistakes.

Edit: now that they both know, it’s fine but I just needed to vent. Also I can’t leave because I only started working here a month ago and don’t have enough savings to wait it out until a better paying/better job in general comes along.
