I might be getting fired soon(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by itsnnotdamiann
For context I'm 17 years old and Starbucks is my second fast food job. I've been missing a lot of days of school and work because I keep getting sick but my parents haven't had time to take me to my pediatrician or urgent care because my mother is immunocompromised and getting her sick could cause severe complications in her arthritis treatment and my dad takes very long work hours due to the nature of his job. Because of how many scheduled days I've missed my manager says I need to take a medical leave but I need supporting documents before contacting Partner Resources. I don't drive and the cost of getting to my pediatrician by myself is sky high nor can my dad find the time to take off of work to take me there. I don't want to burden my coworkers any more than I already have but I also can't contact partner resources without medical documents proving I'm sick. Any advice on how not to get fired?

If you can email your doctor and let them know what’s going on some places offer over the phone visits or over video chat! You can also just ask for a leave of absence (Ik someone who did that for non emergency or medical reasons) I wish you the best of luck!!🥰
