Need advice for punctuality
I cannot recall a period in time where I have been consistently on-time to events. (not like 3hours early because there were times when I overcompensated and did that but more like 10-20minutes early) I really hate myself for always been late and having to make others wait for me even though its not their fault.
Recently I started working this part-time job that's about a 7 minute walk away from my place. I was determined to be punctual to this job and for the first few weeks, I was mostly early with the occasional 3-5minute late days. My 2 managers and the company itself are from a culture where punctuality is very important to them and before this week, there have been no complaints or comments about it. After awhile though, I found out that the company was docking my pay if I left even a few minutes before the hour was up but didn't count the 10minutes extra I worked once my shifts were over. (they use a clock-in system so it's by hour) This made me feel like my time was not being valued and gradually I allowed myself to slip more which disgusts me a lot. This week alone, I had messaged my managers twice to tell them I'll be coming in late because of health issues (really bad stomachache and period cramps). Not just that for a few weeks now, I've been late to work around 10mins late and I think my manager is upset about that. This week he started ignoring me and stopped giving me tasks to do and that made me feel very outcasted because it felt like I wasn't needed there. Besides the bare minimum, he would otherwise ignore me and only interact and have hearty conversations with my co-workers in other languages that he knows I am not very fluent in. It genuinely breaks my heart because I really do like my manager and I even planned on painting a picture of the shop for them but now I feel like he wouldn't care nor want it. This goes beyond just work as university is starting in a few months and I really don't want to bring this along for another 4 years.
