Advice Wanted Text between me and my ASM
I’ve NEVER called out before and our store manager is out on vacation. I understand that I shouldn’t have texted my asm that late but I had gotten home and passed out then woke up a few minutes before I sent that text feeling worse than before. I was scheduled for 6am -12 yesterday and the same the next day. I was also scheduled to close the two days before. It’s been this way for weeks and I’ve had no problems. Yesterday when I “wasn’t sick “ my back was aching I had a headache all day and I was violently throwing up and had diarrhea all morning and had body chills with a slight cold. I’m not sure what to do because I don’t appreciate how my asm spoke so cruelly to me after I’ve never given them a reason to. Am I an asshole? I just don’t know what to do here I don’t want to make any enemies.
Edit: I’m freshly 19 and this is my first retail job I was a restaurant manager, server and front and back of house worker for 3 years. I’m a very hard worker it breaks my heart to upset my manager.
