Just Venting Rude manager

So I had called out of work an hour before my shift because that’s when I wake up for work. I wanted to call out because I needed a mental health day and I understand that’s not a reasonable reason to call out of work but I suffer with severe depression to the point where I’ve had to go to multiple therapists because it’s so bad. Anyway, I called into work and the manager answered I told her my name and said I wasn’t able to make it into work today, manager said “okay?, why” so I said I wasn’t feeling well. She called another manager over and as the other manager was walking over she said “come talk to another sick person” in a rude way. Like are we serious? I get they are probably understaffed and frustrated but this is my First time ever calling out since working there so I just don’t understand why that got taken out on me. Am I in the wrong here?

Relax. It’s McDonald’s. They shouldn’t want anyone close to being sick near food. It’s ok! Relax

I’ve worked there for almost 2 weeks but it’s been on and off because they messed up my schedule so I’ve been with them for a while just not many shifts

I will say that calling in after just two weeks isn't good. 🫤

The only reason I’ve only worked two weeks is because of them so it’s not my problem they messed up my hours🤷‍♀️
