SL here, can I be forced to do overtime?

Im contracted Saturdays. I booked next week off as holiday and they’ve put me in for the Sunday.

ive said no as I’ve made plans to be off the weekend and theyve said I need to be flexible and work it.

“4 managers are off, the other shift leader can work due to child care, you’ll need to do it” ???

AITA - I don’t like being touched. I don’t like hugs.

So. I have OCD and autism. Diagnosed by a dr.

I HATE people touching me. I’m very open about this because I know it can be rude If I’m very stand offish. Meeting new people I am a bit more open just so I won’t offend them and then if I see them again I’ll be open and tell them.

you can hug me, but the least I will accept is a arm across my back. I hate skin to skin contact.

well, I have family staying and one member tried to hug me, but I know them, it’s not just a hug, it’s a long hug with kisses on both cheeks, face grabbing, kiss on the lips of they feel like it. So I won’t go near them and wave, they get close I walk away.

it’s causes a massive fight and how I “hate” them. I’ve told them my boundaries 100times before. I’ve explained to them I’m like this with my own parents. I’ve told them I’m even single by choice because of it. but it’s still caused a fight and everyone including family friends are telling me to hug them to get it over and done with?

why do we HAVE to hug?

Garage shut, tills going down, freezers packing up. Staff fed up!

every year when it gets this hot the garage overheats, power goes out. Tills become slow and keep shutting down. Freezers packing up again. Staff feel overworked, hot and bothered, customers keep moaning.

you’ll think this company would invest in keeping the store cooler, I wonder how much money they’re losing.

Why do I get jealous when my friends hang out with other friends?

it’s not two friends i know. it’s my friend going to see their friend.

I also have my own friends. I do my own thing.

but I have this one friend, and I fear I have attachment issues with him. I feel like it’s a slight obsession.

I don’t like being jealous I’m glad they have their own friends and not just me.

My uniform makes me invisible when I’m in the queue.

I’m not sure if customers just think I’m just standing there, self serve or main bank.

Ill have a basket full of shopping but customers will still push in-front of me.

today, im in the queue with my trolley after work and a customer pushes infront of me with her daughter, i tell her im in the queue and she goes “you shouldn’t really be saving spaces for customers“ so I told her I was the customer and i actually had to push past her trolley and start loading on to the belt so I wasn’t pushed out.

She got a manager, and luckily they told her I was currently a customer and they’ll have to wait their turn 🤣

Headache from not eating!

so I was stuck in traffic on my way home. and after I got home mess just so tired I went to bed.

i didn’t eat for 18 hours. I woke up with a splitting headache and it won’t go away. I’ve eaten some toast and eggs and a protein shake but it still won’t go away

I’ve taken something for it but it’s just getting worse. I’m sure it’s because I went so long without eating?

Food missing, bag was delivered open. No refund?

I was stupid enough to give him the code before I took my food. after that, he said I’ll need to message UberEats with any problem.

Told him to wait while I check food and he ran off. I’m not blaming the driver, I think they’ve missed food and the bag popped open, but it’s just annoying??

workplace grievance. Would I be told the outcome?

so there’s two people at work who bully me, at first I wasn’t bothered but they started to spread lies about me. I have a few people come forward who have seen and heard it.

All I know is that they had a meeting and that’s it.

would I be told the outcome if they just got a let’s talk or warning?

Had a small fire in the bakery and the alarm went off. Customers wouldn’t leave and when they did, they stood by the emergency exit blocking the door!

I actually had to shout at a customer to leave, she wouldn’t and tried to carry on doing her shopping. you could smell smoke, a customer grabbed her and told her theres a fire and she needs to leave.

as I’ve left all these customers are blocking the exit and just standing there, I’ve had to tell them to keep the exits clear and they need to go around back to the main entrance as that’s the only entrance they’ll be let back in.

none of them moved! But they were all told to back to the main entrance, they kicked off.

was shut for over an hour and customers were still waiting

When a friend says “what would you like” when you go to a restaurant, would you think they’re paying?

“what would you like” vs “what are you getting” are two very different things and mean different things to me, is it just me?

my friend said they both mean the same thing, but im sure they don’t?
