yesterday morning i called in 30 mins before my opening shift because my apartment flooded. while i know 30 mins isnt really a lot of time to find a replacement, i obviously wasnt planning on the sink pipe bursting. i feel like most of me and my moms belongings getting absolutely drenched was a bit more important than a 3 hour opening shift at a grocery store.

today i went in and manager asked what happened yesterday. so i told him, and showed him photos of all the water everywhere. he seemed annoyed about me not going in. “[coworker] was all alone, why couldnt you have just come in?” like, if it was that important, why couldnt manager had come in instead?? mornings are usually pretty slow anyway.

i didnt even tell him that the night prior i hardly slept because i was so nauseous and in pain from a kidney stone, i almost went to the er about it.

anyway thank you for reading if you did, retail sucks and i know thats what i signed up for but i feel like im allowed to be a bit frustrated at the situation
