Not sure if posts like this are allowed but I was extremely sick yesterday so I called in; today at work I felt nauseous so I went to the bathroom sat on the toilet and then immediately threw up.
I went to my boss and told him and he told me to go home but that I’d get a half a point for leaving half way through the shift; since I only had about 2 hours left I told him I’d rather just stick it out then but instead he forced me to go home since i was sick.
If anything has made me hate American employement it’s this. This just cements that if you aren’t your own boss you’re barely seen as human.
