AITA for wanting my(30f) bf(40m) to support me calling out of work today?

Last night I tossed, turned, and scratched all night and I don't think I got more than 1 hour of sleep. My legs ache, I felt tickling sensations (knismesis seems most accurate) every couple minutes, and a stomach ache with acid reflux that came up basically all the way at one point.

I want to call in sick, but when I told him he was very annoyed and said I'll get fired if I do. I haven't called out sick this month, but I do call out about once a month. They've cut my hours in half and occasionally give me a closing and opening shift back-to-back, like tonight/today, so I do feel like they're trying to get rid of me... I've been managing to pay all my bills, but just barely. I don't have debt, but I'm barely managing to scrape by...

I told him he was not acting supportive like I'd like to see in a life partner (he wants to get married), and he said "Sorry, we don't live in a fantasy land," "we have to sacrifice" etc. So I told him "Just leave me alone." Idk I just feel like shit, over all this, and I guess I just want to know how everyone else would handle today. Thanks

Edit: TMI but diarrhea twice in 8 hours as well. Don't know what's going on

Managers want me to hide points. Higher-up says not to. Managers don't know(?) Advice?

My manager and store leader have been telling us to stop telling Pet Parents about their points because they want to pump up our store's numbers. We're now supposed to skip past that page as quickly as possible (HA, with these slow af registers?), and pretend we don't see anything. This has lead to some very unhappy, distrustful customers, and a few refunds-re-sales using the points, which has also held up the line. It also has just plain depressed me, having to deceive decent people while chatting like we're friends. I asked the Senior Director of Loyalty & Member Experience simply what our policy is, and they said we should be telling each PP about their points when that page pops up. I get scolded now every time I tell a PP they have points, it's so uncomfortable, and I'm wondering if I should bring up the Director's response, or just go on like normal and wait until they threaten me with something. Going to HR seems excessive.

Our manager said not to give out treats at the register anymore until he buys more. I thought they were comped by the corp. so I'm confused. That shift was actually painful. I almost want to cry remembering the expectant and confused looks on pups' faces today. And pet parents being kind after I informed them actually made me feel worse. For once I wish they would've been rude lol. I should've just bought a bag myself, but they're giving me so few hours now (66% reduction over the last year) I'm paycheck-to-paycheck. On top of all the pushing pushing PUSHING we're supposed to do, and not being allowed to tell people they have points anymore, I am really starting to hate this fcking place!
