I text my boss saying I wouldn't be in, never heard back.

I didn't even call in this morning. I feel like I'm burning up from inside. Throat hurts, head hurts and my one eye is weeping. The back/nerve pain is intense. And I know if I go into work they'll just work me harder. It's like they think it's funny. After I had a hernia operation they tried to make me climb the ladder to hang heavy ass clothes on the top rack in the stock room. At least twelve feet up. I had to tell them over and over I have limits and they had a note from my surgeon and doc. They just don't care and I don't care anymore either. If they fire me, great. Idc anymore about abusive management at shitty jobs. I'll figure it out.

Keep detailed notes, see if a lawyer thinks younl have a case against them.

I replied to your reply on my post and now I am seeing this one..... I hope you took adequate rest and take some distance from that situation. Even if not physical, at least take some mental distance, do not hold them with such priority in your mind, see it as an ephemeral thing, a lot smaller than what you are, and take a breathe.

Never neglect pain! This week provided a horror story about telling people (doctor) about being in pain and being told it’s in your head. Three years of wasted rehab because no one would follow up.
It's like feeling like shit isn't enough you get punished for being sick ...I've never understood that

@cherny It's such a weird reaction to someone's pain. I tolerate it so long because I can't believe it's real. But then I end up hurt. So weird.
It's like this everywhere, my job too. They act like everyone having a health issue is milking it. They constantly preach safety safety safety and then push us to extreme limits.

I hope you feel better soon

@robingoodfellow this is not good. Preaching about one thing, then pushing people to the other direction..
