hi so this is literally all events from today and i want to know if this is ethical for me to be working and i’m sitting in the parking lot rn. also on mobile and trying to get this out as fast as possible so apologies for grammar and shit. i woke up this morning with a really sore throat and rn is the season where i religiously get sick with strep and other upper resp infections. i’m the only person on the schedule who knows what to do for the position i was hired on but i’m also still in training (which hasn’t been done for almost 3 weeks now i’m literally learning by fucking around on the system) and there’s only one other person i’m closing with tonight. i let my manager know that i can’t get testing done for whatever i have until tomorrow (university student) and…

i woke up this morning with a really sore throat and rn is the season where i religiously get sick with strep and other upper resp infections. i’m the only person on the schedule who knows what to do for the position i was hired on but i’m also still in training (which hasn’t been done for almost 3 weeks now i’m literally learning by fucking around on the system) and there’s only one other person i’m closing with tonight. i let my manager know that i can’t get testing done for whatever i have until tomorrow (university student) and that my body is making me feel not well (obv) and the mild nausea i had at the time. she’s still having me come in and wearing a mask to work but this is an intensive job where i’m interacting with customers, my coworkers, and animals. i don’t feel well enough to exert myself in a safe manner like i normally could so i’m wondering if i really should just go home or try and get easier stuff done instead? i’m interviewing for new jobs as i type this but idk i just wanna know if im crazy for feeling like i should just stay home when i am religiously strep/pneumonia/bronchitis symptomatic every year around this time. there’s also like 0 coverage that i could get and idk who would have been able to take my shift anyways. help/advice?
