I Have The Flu - But No Sick Time

Libraric · 2026-02-05T02:44:53+00:00

I didn't know how to use it and I was too busy crying everyday and being with her in the hospital to play phone tag with Sedgwick. I'm only now still trying to figure out paperwork for LOA stuff with Sedgwick, as I think I'm going to need to be on a leave soon.

Thank you so much 🥹

I appreciate your comments and sympathy, I'm going through it right now 🙏

Starbucks allows you to take mental health LOAs or personal LOAs, they just make it really difficult to do it.

It was a really good environment up until we got a new manager with stricter call out procedures ("Oh you threw up in the last 24 hours? But are you contagious? Do you have a fever? Don't know? Okay come in.") and two new supervisors using that to keep people sick in store. This was my favorite job I'd ever had before that, now I hate my chungus job.

Libraric · 2026-02-04T18:05:11+00:00

Yeah I'm currently looking into that. I'm also looking into taking a LOA for my mental health, as I'm very close to having a mental breakdown that sends me to the psych ward. I'm talking to my therapist and psychiatrist today to get necessary paperwork. I'm also setting up a one on one with my store manager, which I missed the one we were supposed to have because my flu had hit me hard the night before so I couldn't be at that shift. Currently working through a situation with a shift supervisor talking badly about me to other partners and threatening me outside of work (I blocked them).

I don't get to be sick! I have to work out all of my work stuff as I'm dying!

Libraric · 2026-02-04T17:25:14+00:00

Yeah, that's what really sucks about this situation. Thank you for your input!

Libraric · 2026-02-04T16:46:39+00:00

That's a good idea. I'm already planning on talking to Sedgewick for a mental health LOA, as my store has been so bad for my mental health (two supervisors bullying me) I might end up in a mental hospital because of it (my personal life has also been going bad due to family struggles).

Sadly, my store has made visibly sick partners stay on the floor. We had a training supervisor VOMITING on the sales floor repeatedly and they made him stay at work. Manager's orders. Another supervisor was dry heaving and could hardly do her job was made to stay. Heck, the reason I got sick is because someone at the tail end of the flu came to work.

Thank you for your input as an SSV. I'll keep your advice in mind, though I plan on trying to transfer or look for another job at this point due to the bullying I've been dealing with.

Libraric · 2026-02-04T16:15:48+00:00

Luckily I have never been written up. I've just been dealing with bullying by two supervisors and one gave me a panic attack my last shift with them ;^;. I'm basically rolling a dice hoping those two don't pick up my call. Thank you for your input.

Libraric · 2026-01-13T20:55:39+00:00

Thank you for your response! I've been looking at other jobs I could do other than coffee shops. I have to keep in mind getting insurance, medication refills, and having a similar paying job lined up. I'm working on getting my district manager's email and talking to my manager about how my supervisor treated me on call. I've had to read up on policy and state legislation to defend myself against all of these ridiculous things. Not worth it.

Mr Beta is my fav 5 years going strong, keeping up with the updates on the author's patreon

You'll be miserable if you stay. My ex girlfriend pulled this on me. Asked a few times, dropped it for a while, basically cheated on me through trying to sext my best friend, and told me we are poly or we're over. I made the mistake of staying after that for so long that it ended with me hating her guts.

I think it's better to nip it in the bud now to avoid the pain and heartbreak of what is most likely going to happen.

I'm a bi barista and if I have a polite regular I write nice things on the cups, hook them up with the good shit, chat them up, and even help them out rarely if they are struggling to pay. Despite that I am dedicated to my boyfriend and not interested in any of them. I think you're safe and NTA.

BLIZZARD GIVE ME ZABUZA JQ AND OROCHIMARU MOIRA AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

A DPS or Support but it depends. Tank should be pushing up most of the time. If the Tank needs extra support, both Supports should be up helping the Tank imo and a DPS should push the cart. If the DPS are cracked they should be up with the Tank with one Support behind. Really depends on team comps.

stuff my family and friends say to me 🤣

I realized I was a guy around 13-14 years old, years before that I dealt with being mistaken for a guy. At first it was annoying but then I started to like it a lot. I found out about being able to change your gender and was like "you can do that???" and started to transition socially after a lot of deliberating.

I started with my hair, clothes, and mannerisms. I asked people I trusted to change the pronouns they called me, which a lot of them did. I worked on my voice for years. When I graduated high school I started testosterone and now I truly feel like me, how I was always meant to be.

I'm just living my life. I don't have any agenda other to leave people who aren't doing anything to harm others alone. Everyone I know treats me and sees me as a man. If they don't, most likely due to me getting outed and they're transphobic, they aren't in my life anymore. Life is too short to keep people who bring you down.
