Bakery wrapper, and had to leave early today I’m so embarrassed
I’m so embarrassed to even say this, I’m a new hire and work in the bakery as a wrapper. Today was something I can’t even believe I had to say to my manager. I’m on probation obviously as this is my second week, the people in my bakery are amazing, so friendly and kind. I work hard, and I actually LOVE being a wrapper. I know I’ll get faster as time goes on, but definitely wouldn’t say I’m slow. This is my second week, I’m really hard on myself I want to be reliable and do my best always..that goes for any job I’ve had. I’m so embarrassed, today I started at 7:30am around 9am I started having the most insane stomach pain almost unbearable. I’m a girl and my pain tolerance is high since I have awful cramps during my period, but today it was next level and I’m not on my cycle. I excused myself to the bathroom and oof I had diarrhea. 10 minutes later I had to go again, finally took my 15 and sat on the toilet the WHOLE time. The pain and the frequent amount was like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I had diarrhea SIX times in the span of 40 minutes, the pain and everything was astonishing. I decided I needed to probably say something since this wasn’t normal. I did end up leaving early, my manager was so kind and understanding. I was super embarrassed to even say what was going on. I went home and it has continued throughout the day. I believe when we made tacos last night at home the meat was bad, but tbh no idea what caused it for sure.
My coworkers, and manager told me not to worry, that it will be okay and illnesses happen and they would do the same. BUT, I’m still nervous about screwing up my job because of this, its my second week and I’m so embarrassed that I had to even say out loud “I can’t stop having diarrhea and I’m in serious pain.” I’m someone who never calls out, and I’m just nervous I messed up this job since this is only my second week and I’m on probation. I work hard, and I love it but I’m just freaking out now because I don’t wanna lose this job. Am I just overthinking? I told them I’ll be there tomorrow, which I will be but I’m just nervous this one day will not go well in the long run. Also, I’m laughing while posting this because it’s so embarrassing and gross but it was NOT good.
Am I screwed?? Am I overthinking this?
