Calling in sick to my part time retail job in a few hours. Im dreading it. I’ve worked their 7 months and only called in sick 1 time. When I explained to my boss I was sick and not coming in, he asked me what I had and when I told him I had a bad headache/throat infection (keep in mind this is during COVID, no one was vaccinated, we work with the public and have to fill out papers before every shift that state we do not have any symptoms) he said “ bad enough that you can’t work?” I don’t want to talk to him. I really dislike dealing with him for a number of reasons and I’m happy I haven’t seen him in 3 months. I just know he’s going to try to guilt me and he will likely be even more petty with me (he’s been mad at me because I asked to cut my hours just a little for school and he decided to chop half my hours for the last 2 months.) I literally can’t sleep thinking about having to talk to him and having to worry about how he will be petty now.
