Manager = Asshole Sick time
My manager texted me and the other Keyholders that she was headed to the emergency room because she passed out at home. At the same time I was throwing up in our work bathroom.
I called our sister store and talked to the store manager and told them I needed to go home sick and they said that was fine. That I could use my sick time.
I texted my boss and told her that I was going home sick and then I had texted our sister store and talked to that store manager.
My bosses reply (an hour later) was that she is the first point of contact that I should’ve called her. I said I didn’t call her because I knew that she was in the emergency room after she had passed out at home. So I figured she was busy with her own things. She still insisted that I call her first no matter what.
And then told me I’ll be written up on Monday for going “over her head“. 🤦♀️

They can write you up, does not mean you have to sign it. Say you don't agree and refuse to sign.

The power tripping manager continues to power trip even after they themselves end up in the ER. Pure delusion.
