I burnt my arm at work and they asked me for the lotion back…

When I was walking back to the kitchen someone left the oven open and it burnt my arm and they gave me money to go get lotion next door from the pharmacy and the next day the manager asked me for the lotion back and I thought that it was kind of complementary because you know they burnt my arm and he laughed at me saying “they need to lotion back”. This happened years ago but I still think about it Edit. A seriously bad burn that scarred my arm

My manager didn’t want to give me days off.

I am on an internship organized by the Employment Office and I have a different contract than the employees of the company where I have my internship. I am entitled to two days off for every month worked and I can use them whenever I want and the manager cannot refuse me. My internship ends on June 23, so I wanted to use the 8 days I have left to rest and have time to look for another job. The manager didn't agree, claiming that she needed me because she had a new employee and he needed to learn what I was doing (an intern teaching a new employee, this is absurd). I insisted that I wanted to use my days off, because I simply deserved it. I can go on for a long time about what happened there, but in short, I contacted the employment office to make sure…
