I told them i have a doctors certificate, and my doctor actually told me that i shouldn't go into work for my next shifts - yet they still harassed me about not being able to sleep for 3 days "not being a real reason", laughing and asking me "what could i possibly be stressed about?" and "You better have a doctors certificate!".
I wouldn't tell them details of my "personal reasons" or illness because my manager has actually told other people of another staff member taking 2 weeks off because of depression. Now, do i want all my work mates knowing that i am not really the "healthy" happy camper i pretend to be?
I'm part time. This is the second time in three years i've taken a sick day. My first sick day 2 years ago (was actually 3 consecutive days) was because i had an abcess closing off my throat and was rushed to emergency after visiting the doctors thinking i just had tonsilitus (and didn't want to seem like i was overreacting), i spent the weekend in hospital, but that did seem like a silly excuse for work to comprehend why i still couldn't come into my shifts. Due to the treatment from my managers, i wont be turning up for my final shift. Now, they can deal with that.
It's pathetic they let the power get to their head, when all they do is act like an after school care for high school kids.
deep breath, sorry.
/end rant.
