I work in a salon. I am also the last person to get hired so I tend to get all the dirty work since I'm the "low man on the pole". I get stuck having to clean the bathrooms, sweep, mop, take care of all the garbage, do all the laundry, do inventory, put all shipments away (most of the boxes weight 30+ lbs), clean up after the other employees who are too lazy to clean up after themselves, and take care of my clients on top of it.
I'm 10 weeks pregnant and had told my boss about my pregnancy a few weeks ago in hopes that I would get a little help since it was getting very stressful having to take care of my clients and everyone else's needs and cleaning everything on my own.
Unfortunately things have gotten much worse and no one has offered to help me at all. I'm also still being told to scrub the floor on my hands and knees with clorox which I told them I really shouldn't be doing as my doctor told me to avoid directly inhaling these types of chemicals. Now, today I was pulled into my boss' office and told that I'm not doing my job and the work I am doing in unsatisfactory. He gave me several examples of me "not doing my job" and yet I had taken care of each thing he'd listed. I tried to explain that it's hard for me to take care of all of that on my own and it'd be better if I had some help. He told me that I need to ask my coworkers (who are my superiors) to help me. I expressed my discomfort in doing so and he told me that wasn't his problem. I told him I felt as if I'm cleaning staff and not a salon/spa employee. He told me that was my job. I also brought up that I would be returning to school for nursing and he told me that I need to decided if this is a place where I wish to further my career or not and let him know so he can hire someone else.
By the end of the conversation I was almost hyperventilating and hysterical because I was being told over and over that any problems I have are my own problems not his even though it's his staff. I've had other anxiety problems in this job even before I was pregnant and was on medication for it. Now, I'm worried that things are going to get worse for me because I think they want me gone but don't want to fire me or let me go. I think they're going to make my life h*ll until I quit.
I'm worried that all the stress is going to hurt my baby and myself. I've been losing alot of weight because of how sick I start to feel when I get to work from being stressed. I've lost over 15lbs so far and it's always on my mind. Should I talk to my doctor about this? I'm so lost as of what to do...
I forgot to add that I work full time and Saturday's are the busiest days. I don't even get a break. Not even a 15 minute one. Every second I have free I spend cleaning up after one or several of my coworkers. I tried to schedule a lunch into my appointment book and it was taken out and I was "spoken" to about it.
I'm pregnant and not allowed to eat?! I'm working a full 8 hour day!!
