I’ve posted here before about my shitty company and my shitty job. Needless to say I still work for them because even though every where says they are hiring no one actually is. I’ve put in at least 7 job applications in the past week and the only people that are contacting me is indeed about more jobs I match. Anyway, I’ve had maybe 5 days off since October. Last June I was asked to run a second store with promises of it helping me get the promotion I wanted. About a month ago that promotion went to another woman. Back in December I told my then boss that I couldn’t/ wouldn’t do two stores anymore and here we are at the end of February with no relief in sight. Today is a high stress day for one of my stores. Today is audit day, the day my boss and her boss decided to visit day, order day, and a new hire day. Yesterday and the weeks following up to this day have just seen my anxiety build. Also yesterday I called every urgent care in the area until I found one to give me a doctors note for a week off. I immediately sent it to my boss who responded with “what’s the reason? If it’s Covid I have to let hr know.” My response was “no. No Covid.” That’s all she needed to know. She then asked me to make sure my schedules were covered. I told her my employees schedules were done until after I will be back but if I knew how to cover my schedule I’d have at least a day off a week and good luck with that. She found someone. My SO. She told him and his assistant that hopefully it’s just the sniffles like She had last week. When was the last time a doctor gave a week off for the sniffles. Instead of my SO taking this as an opportunity for time off for himself also he accepted the additional responsibility and will now be working my two stores and his assistant will be working his store. My SO has also been working 7 days for quite some time now. I can’t believe any of this. What if this was actually something that I would need my SO for. What if I found out I was pregnant and because I’m in my 40s I have to go have a bunch of tests done or they found a heart condition where I could not drive until they figured out what was wrong but had to get to the Cleveland clinic for testing every other day? A week off isn’t something a doctor normally does. I was lucky enough to find a provider that cared about my mental health as much as my physical health. I hate this company even more now.
