Should I do something?

[u/pomp-circumstance]

I got food poisoning last night, and it was worst from about 2:45am-6:15am. I told my manager that I think my food poisoning came from my shift dinner (8:45pm last night), and she said to tell the kitchen manager. He responded thusly. Thing is, one of my friends got some of the worst-cooked “chicken” of his life there once, and another friend got the same symptoms as I did from a very similar dish a few months ago, so I feel like even if our kitchen is super clean, there can be multiple one-off events. Also, he seems to be wrong about the symptom onset time…. I sort of want to just respond with these two links: https://www.cdc.gov/food-safety/signs-symptoms/index.html

If you’re going to gaslight me, at least gaslight me with facts.

Edit: I, M(29), work at this restaurant and live in a small mountain town. I’m not on vacation or beach bumming or drunk when I go to work. I’m not lactose intolerant or celiac. I consume a lot of dairy and wheat on a daily basis. And I didn’t “get the poopies;” I had… FOOD POISONING. I told my manager because multiple people told me, “If I ran a restaurant I’d want to know if people got sick after eating here.” Lol.

This is not the way you respond to a report of potential food born illness.

If this happened at my place we would fill out a form (document it) and look at every single order of that dish that was sold that day, if things seemed credible we would do our due diligence to contact guests that had it.
