So today was the boss' first day back after vacation. I get to work and she was waiting outside because I had the key. I noticed she was a little bit pink, but she was just on vacation, and it's really hot the last couple of days, so I figured she got a little sun. We go inside, she turns on the lights, we go to the break room and she says she needs the bathroom. She comes back and she's red and she says she thinks she's having an allergic reaction to something. She feels like her face is swelling, and she's itchy and warm. Ramona and I noticed last night when we were closing that there were several wasps above the door. So I ask her if she just started feeling this since we were inside, and she said no, it started outside. So I asked her if she had felt a sting or a bite or something. No. Did she eat anything new for breakfast, no. She has no idea what's going on. So I ask her if she can breathe ok, because if she can't breathe, that's very serious, but no, she can still breathe just fine. So I suggest calling the doctor to see what she should do. Then our intern arrived...it's her first week back from vacation, too, but she doesn't get paid and she can't run the register or anything. So by this time, the boss is really red and she's starting to itch on her arms, too. Then she sits down, puts her head in her hands and says her head hurts. So I'm like....you need to go to the doctor! But it's her first day back, and if she leaves, I'm there alone. She Doesn't want to make me open without her. But, I've opened and closed with Bissan, which is basically doing it alone. A medical emergency is a medical emergency.
So it's getting worse and she's crying, head still in her hands and she's feeling miserable and is getting more and more red. I tell her she should call the doctor and see if they have advice, but she doesn't say anything. So I ask her if she can still breathe, do I need to call an ambulance? No answer. So I wait, and I look at the intern, who looks concerned, but has no insights to share. So I ask her again if I need to call an ambulance. Still no answer. So I jump up to grab my phone from my locker and tell her I'm calling, and she says no, she'll call her doctor. She hands the keys back to me and tells me to count the tills and open the store. So I was getting everything going, and she comes out of the break room. She's trying to call her husband to come get her to take her to the doctor. But now she's dizzy as well. So she goes back to the break room while I finish the morning routine. She had the intern go next door to get allergy meds. I made sure she called our regional manager to let her know what's going on and she says she already called her and was told to leave immediately, which means I'm on my own, but she has to wait for someone to come pick her up because she can't drive like this. Her parents get there to take her to the doc, so I'm there by myself for a few hours. She had tried to get someone to come in and cover, but couldn't. This means there's no one else to do cash register or anything, so I can't take a break at all until someone else is there. I got my first break of the day just before 1pm. The doc gave her something and the itch was gone, so she just came back....no one responded in the whatsapp group. She's still not feeling 100%. She's weak and tired and achy, but at least she was back to her normal color and she wasn't itching, etc. No idea what caused it, and hopefully she'll feel better tomorrow. But it was a very stressful day.
But she talked to Ramona last night about Bissan, and she asked me about my experiences with her, and I gave basically the same account as Ramona...that even when she's on time, she doesn't WORK, that she acts like the boss, that she has quite the mouth, etc. She said she's going to tell her this weekend or Monday that she doesn't need to come back. So she'll be gone in a week.
That took 30 min., after that, they had 15 planes ahead of them taking off. 
He was sending me cranky texts. Lol.
