So my work place dose know that I am autistic and there set up stuff to help me with it like having my loop ear plugs in when over whelmed allowing me to have my figit spinner and been allowed in the back to pot wash when over whelmed. But despite that, I feel like my autism was ignored and that as a person I was treated like my efforts was not even good enough, despite working my ass off, and running around while trying not to get burnt out which I was very close to doing.
The shift started of well, it was not too busy and I just did my job, then there was a quite moment where I did the pot wash hand over and the other staff restocked and changed the bins. At that time the next manager came in and saw me in the back sorting out the pot wash and training a new cashier how to do it.
As it picked up I started to work harder, making sure ice cream machine was topped up, kept on top of cutlery, and kept pushing stuff though pot wash, cleared tables, dealt with customer request, answered the phone, sat customers down, did check backs and sweapt the floor, running food.
The Supervisor said I was doing a smashing job, the supervisor was visibley angry and frusrated, we where all was, but I was hiding mine. Even the manager was visabily angry and frustrated.
And I asked him if I could go to the toilet, and he said is everything ok, I thought notthing of it, just told him yeah just a little overwelemed and he dismised it by saying somthing along the line of you can't be overwellmed or that we are all overwelmed but you still need to do more, I've not seen you all day. I told him all the jobs I've done and he said well I've been on grills, tills and host and take aways, I need you to work a bit harder.
This made me feel worthless that all my hard work means notthing to me. How much more work could I have done, my heart was racing, my breathing laboured, feeling dissy, and heart burn, and still I was not working hard enough in his books.
When it came to finishing my shift I asked him if I could finish, he said notthing as he put food on the grill, I asked again after he did that and still nothing. So I put the last lot of stuff in the pot wash and clocked out and went home.
I expect to get a documented chat over this for getting angry as I went to the toilet taking of my apron in a fit of rage, for not working hard enough and for not been seen working hard enough by the manager.
I've written everything down to argue this if it comes to it along with telling to watch the CCTV and tell me I was not working hard enough. If I do get this documented chat over this I will be speeking the Citizen advise buruo about what I can do and to make sure that the manager on shift that ignored or dismissed my autsium, dismissed my work and wanted more from me, gets in to so much trouble he will be writting a letter of an appoligy.
After my hoilday I will be putting in motion to start looking for work else where, weather I give a 2 weeks notice or not is dependent on how there make me feel.
