week. On the way home she called her manager at Round Table (she works there on the weekends) to let him know they dont want her back to work yet. He asked her what was going on and she told him she had

a severe case of strep. He told her that he knows strep well because his wife has it all the time and she should be back to work the day after her doctors appt. She tried to explain that the doctor didnt

want her to go to work but he just scoffed and hung up on her. I went in to drop off her note and spoke to the manager. I told him that it wasnt just a common case of strep. She has a severe case of strep

and she almost had to be hospitalized. She also had a bad reaction to one of her meds which has set her back a bit as well. He just stared at me like I was speaking another language. So I kept going. I said

that the doctors were worried because she was having trouble breathing with the strep...(still staring not saying a word) So I said they though they were going to have to hospitalize her and lance her

uvula. Then he finally speaks and says "thats not appropriate to speak about here...people are eating" Well fuck you dude...acknowledge what I am saying then. So I said...well I just wanted him to know that

she wasnt faking and that she was really really sick. He just says ok and dismisses me. No I hope she feels better nothing. I am so furious and feel like he was talking down to me like I am some idiot. I

feel like I should call corporate on his ass...but I dont want to get her in more trouble.

Wow...he sounds like a douchebag on a power trip.

Every restaurant I have ever worked at has been like this.

AustiePegler: Yeah, especially the big corporate ones.

I didnt really want to announce to the entire restraunt my daughter's medical condition but since he just stared blankly at me like I was some idiot I didnt feel he was unerstanding what I was saying. I didnt

feel I had a choice but to keep going

AustiePegler: Yup, same here - food place and they want you in contagious - at least fast food - fancier places can sometimes be a little more understanding, or -were- back when I worked.

If she ends up losing her job even with the doctor's notice, -then- call corporate.

I definatly will...the way we were treated was inexcusable

Good grief...what a dBag boss. It is sad that he couldn't dig up even a little bit of compassion.
