Today at work during the weekly meeting, M got sick. She looks pale and was not able to sit still; she was swaying from side to side. She was looking very pale and was sweating too. Some said to call for the ambulance, some said to call M’s sister first. Then suddenly M coughed a few times and she vomited. I think it was her breakfast. I had to look elsewhere when she vomited as I felt I was going to vomit too.
Then boss came and said better for M to lie down for a while. M heard and said she was dizzy and wanted to lie down too. So she went and lies down near the meeting table.
Maybe she was dizzy and feeling very tired since yesterday she was doing the manifesting or data entry. Data entry takes a lot of time and its very tiring I can imagine, sitting there for more than 2 hours typing away, more than 2 hours if there were a lot of shipments. And these extra hours are after working hours. After 5.30pm and could last till 8 pm. I’m feeling tired already after 6 pm, what more if working till 8 pm and being sick at the same time?
M is not well yet she should not be doing these extra hours, even though she wants to do it. Some say that she needs to stand up for herself, not to be bullied by J the assistant manager of CS (that is what I hear V say her job title is). Obviously she is unable to do that, so someone should be doing it, be her backbone for a while, but usually its just talk and in the end no one helps her. Some say its not their place to say and some well I don’t know.
I hope she get well soon.
