They fired me three months ago but just yesterday they delated my number from the Whatsapp group and it reminded me
It's not the first job I've had but it was the longest (until today ofc), and I remember because it was just sooo so so bad, I'll admit I'm kinda sensitive so i cryed multiple times
Not everything was bad but I can't get over what happened in christmas, I cryed a lot man, so I'm telling it now
So my bosses were a very VERY strange couple (literally when I went getting my last payment the guard told me I was better away from them) and they decided it was a good idea to put together a nativity act in at their home. They tought it would be fun and anvited everyone to their place to practice
I will asume this as my fault, because for more context I'm shy, so willingly telling my bosses I would participate was like, me going wild, and I'm the kind of person who goes out of their house if necessary and only to get what is need, and I get overwhelmed when I'm out more than what I was told or what I expected
My idea was getting there 20 min before the agreeded time, 5 pm, thinking everyone out of politeness would do the same, we would act our first draft and the dismissed, idk, an hour or two as much. But I got there (with my parents, they like going with me and they liked my bosses), and it was a whole hour before anyone else showed up
I was getting anxious already, and another hour went by, again I was in my bosses house and they all (with my parents and my bosses' children) were talking out loud. And when I get anxious a lot of times I go non-verbal so my parents were already getting mad at me and I was feeling sick because I knew I was bad-behaving at not joining the conversation
More people came, it was already getting dark and my bosses moved us to their special alcohol room, that it's like a living room on their garden with a lot of flashing lights, gigant speakers and every forniture was made to handle alcohol bottles. I was already 19 in december but I still don't like drinking, so my parents and my bosses where already mad at me because I didn't wanna join them while they started opening bottles and playing to their music in a very loud volume
At this point was already like 3 hours in, with the loud music and all these people getting drunk around me, but my parents always say if I'm not in the conversation at least stay, not be rude, and I stayed. My boss called me a pussy because I was covering my ears from the loud music and my troath was aching because when I'm anxious I start swallowing uncontrollably my own saliva, so I was not only stressed and anxious but also tired and somehow in pain
It was very dark outside when my bosses decided it was good time to go out and actually practiced the nativity act. I did my best thinking after this they would finally let me go, and so we did and it was fine
A parentesis, I was playing the star, I like stars so so much so I have earrings and wristbands with stars, and my bosses didn't notice this until they told I was going to play the star and they started calling me "Their little star" (Yeah I was the youngest there)
So we finished the first draft and we went back inside.....
Now I felt like I had no reason to stay, but my mom repeat again it was rude to just go and I stayed. My bosses got literally drunk they were up in the tables and pseudo-singing, this would have been fun if I wasn't already tired, so I waited and waited
It was 2 am when my bosses finally turned down the music and said it was enough, and context again I'm usually very respponsable like I'd sleep at 9.00 so I could wake up alright at 6 to shower, so when we head my home I cryed because of how tired I was and I decided it would be completetly fine to miss work next day, after all again I was the youngest and I was clearly tired and not enjoying the sudden party they decied to throw
Etc etc I told my bosses I was TIRED because it was true, then my mom said I sould have lied and say I was sick or something, but I didn't realize how stupid I was until my bosses called me angry as fuck still a little bit drunk, and I was gonna go after everything because I don't like people being angry at me, but my bosses told me fuck no, come tomorrow
It could have ended there tbh, like yeah it was my mistake and I should have been an adult and go to work even if I was drained out, but my bosses didn't show up next day, or the next. I knew they were mad at me, but they didn't scolded me because they weren't there and that put me even more anxious until the next week when they finally showed up
And they said nothing, I got scared because that's the kind of thing my bosses do before firing someone
But they didn´t fired me, and also they cancel the nativity event and they didn't even gave us christmas day to rest or the (i think obligatory by the goverment) christmas payment bonus and it was until junary when they explained I had been rude, and thanks to me they decided it was no worth in giving their employees fun on christmas, so even my coworkers who already had told me previous christmast our bosses would give the biggest meals and the best gifts, were mad at meeeeee
Tbh I hated that, I could notice they didn't like being dragged to a party where only my bosses would enjoy and get drunk, but it was apparently obvious you don't do anything about it because they're our bosses and we should do everything they say WE WEREN'T EVEN IN WORKING HOURS
Anyways I didn't wear my star earrings the last two months I worked there, and it was noticeable my bosses stop liking meeeee, like I was doing my job exactly as they told me when I started working there and all of the sudden everything was wrong, and I was an idiot for not knowing and a dirty pig because my point was massy (I didn't move anything and I cleaned, but apparently it was messy)
They just got me around enough to serve an expected important visit and they didn't even paid me all I worked, but thank god I don't have to go back
I know I made mistakes but at least I hope next time I have the choise of following my bosses into their stupid ideas, or at least the chance to walk away when I got tired /unconvinced and discouraged
