tired of putting my health on the backburner.

Lately I have been sick bad, and yesterdays weather was really playing with us as a city. This month has been pretty nice but last week we have been getting alot of dreary weather. And I think that was the cause of me not getting any better.
This morning I was throwing up and having an Asthma Attack and had to call out of work, and my manager decided to threaten me with "serious concequences" if I didnt come into work today. So Im saying in my head, what do you want me to do?? Come into work sick, hacking up all over everyones drinks getting the other partners sick?? That dosent make any damn sense what so ever. So I made the option today and I text her that I was going to take care of myself, and then I recive a long text talking about how I have been sick all week and that I had two days off to get myself together, also that this was unacceptable of a shift supervisor and this was a shift from Jen (my district manager) so get ready for all that comes behind this. ???WTF? im saying in my head? What the fuck am I supposed to do? Magically get better and bust my ass at Starbucks, hell no. I'm the one that is missing out cause me not coming to work is burning a hole in my pockets too.
See this is the type of shit that pisses me off because people expect more out of my position that I never even wanted in the first place. It kills me how managers can be so inconsiderate and then act like they really care. This is a dog eat dog world and if you dont take care of yourself nobody will. And thats exactly what I did today! The worst that can happen is me losing my job over calling out sick, now, how does that look? All I know is that I have to vent and this is my one and only outlet to do so. And my manager made me pissed to the point of considering quitting my job. Im so ready for starbucks to fire me over some bullshit I swear, I have rehursed an entire monolouge of how Im going out if they come at me foul, 5 years Ive given of my life to this company that just will take, take, and take time out of the precious moments you have in life.
All in all Im starting to feel much better now that I threw up most of the flem in my body, I went to the doctor and got some percriptions to get better and I dont have to be at work till 4 tomorrow. So we will see. But either or Im ready for whatever. 1st things 1st is my health which should be the very first priority in my life cause Im tired of putting it on the backburner for a job I hardly even love. damn shame SMH.
