So I get in trouble for becoming unwell at work a few weeks ago. Due to surgery early this year I have no paid sick leave left so during winter it was pretty but losing out, but even though I've gotten my doctors certificates every single time I'm apparently not meeting my work place agreement even though it says I'm fine if I bring in my certificate(s)... So basically since then I've been fairly healthy but today I was feeling very under the weather, so I thought I would come to work because I didn't want to be made feel like a piece of shit for being sick again.
But no, me actually showing up and working was wrong too. I got in trouble for being too slow even though I told him I was feeling unwell. "Feeling a little sick isn't an excuse, you're behind 2 or more hours and its disgusting".. I just stand there just letting him talk because he is always the 1 who has issues with me. Yet I finished it just over 30 minutes after I was meant to and managed to push myself to do 6 and a half hours of pallets in 5 hours.. Ugh I just feel so annoyed..
He was on holidays for 6 full, beautiful weeks recently. The weeks he's on holiday are the absolute best. I get to work and I check the hours/logs book and go take a look at the stock. Organize my cages depending and then break it down. I more often than not get it broken down 15-45 minutes early probably 80% of the time but because he finishes a few hours after I start he never ends up seeing. But back to the holidays. I get to work and the book tells me everything I need to know. The night supervisor gets in at 4:30 or 3:30 pm depending and pretty much figures out what isle she wants me to fill which is easy enough.
Only 2 times in 6 weeks did I need some proper help. The 1st time was when we had no one able to run the fill team for the day, I was basically told to do it, I've never done it. it was fun, hard, difficult but we got it done... The good thing was, was the store manager decided to stay and give me a little guidance because we were down a few workers.. so he did cardboard crushing. And the 2nd time was when we had to wait 3 more hours for the load to show up. It wasnt too big of a problem to sort out what to do until it came but we had no grocery managers in that day.
So what the hell do I do? I've gone to work before sick as a dog and the good team members say to go home. I talk to my boss, he gets annoyed and pretty much says no. I mean. He wont even talk to you for a few days if you've ended up sick. Just like when I had to be hospitalized due to pneumonia. He forced me to come back into work after I'd left to go home due to spewing etc, and then after finishing at midnight about 2 hours later of struggling to try and calm down and sleep and stop coughing etc. i ended up going to hospital and they had to keep me there for a few days because I had pneumonia. came to work after the recovery period, luckily it was a long weekend and he wouldn't talk to me even after I had given him the hospital medical info thing i was given.
He repeats himself multiple times when you already know them, especially how many hours I have to do a specific thing. Its just annoying because I always check the logs book to find out and write it down on my hand. So I decided to stop doing that because he kept telling me. Then he gets up me for not looking at the book the other day. Or he will sort of praise me for either being ahead of time or something and then moments after treat me like a piece of shit because I'm going to slow down and he doesn't want that etc etc.
He said to me today he wasn't getting up me and was talking to me as an equal and then went on to call me pathetic because I couldn't deal with feeling unwell.
I just gotta rant.
Worked there nearly 3 years now... He still thinks I only work in 1 isle. He still thinks the other team members do some of the things I've been doing for 2 and a half years. He still thinks that my certificate from the doctor stating I have asthma is fake.
When he's not at work. Work is actually enjoyable and I don't feel like a worthless piece of shit.
Any ideas on how to sorta deal with it?
Do you have problems like these?
I've been looking for work for nearly 2 years while I am where I am but have yet to even get an interview with anyone...
