I have an old knee injury that flares up every now and then, and as a waitress, it happens alot. I recently called into work saying I could not work, and I got treated very rudely. I came in with a doctors not, and I got more rudeness. I went in today to get next weeks schedule, and to find out if there was anyway I could not work tomorrow as scheduled, and once again I got treated unfairly. All this rudeness is from one manager, and she's just the assistant manager. What actions should I take? Should I quit and get on welfare (HAHA)? Just call in tomorrow? Call corprate or talk to another manager?
I am currently searching for a new job, I am more concerned right now about not going to work tomorrow. The doctors have given me a full leg brace to keep my leg straight, and I have to wear it till next week.... the manager I keep having to deal with does not care. My shift tomorrow is a short shift, I would not be missed, and business would carry on as usual without me

Firstly, you did the right thing in getting a note from your physician. Talk to the manager about your situation, not the assistant. Also tell the manager about her rudeness and how it makes you feel. If the manager treats you the same way, I would then call corporate and ask to speak with a representative from human resources. Good luck.

Ditch the restaurant business and find a different job that is more conducive to your health problem with your leg and where the manager is considerate of your health needs. Perhaps a receptionist or secretarial job. Motels are often looking for receptionists.

You must be the judge.
Things to consider - How bad you need the money/job, how the reference will effect you, and how easily you can be replaced/fired (which would look bad for you).
