Who needs HR and Management?
They should try being in my shoes.
They knew that I had learning difficulties.
They allowed me to be bullied and abused.
They knew I also had Epilepsy.
And they'd take each others sides.
I was always being reprimanded.
Oh how I wish I could have died.
They promised to look after me.
But that promise was all but broken.
I was expected to follow all their rules.
They were deceitful and outspoken.
They always thought of money first.
Of profit and of wealth.
They didn't care if I should have a seizure.
They didn't care about my health.
And so one day it happened.
My worst nightmare came true.
I was left to work alone
And didn't know what to do.
I felt so afraid and vulnerable.
My head started aching.
My legs turned to jelly.
And my body started shaking.
Before I knew it I was on the ground.
Behind a hot plate of all places.
Thank God that it had been switched off.
But I would have loved to burn their faces.
And so I was taken to the hospital
Where I was kept in overnight.
Consumed with grief and anger
Morning.Noon and night.
Soon I was to be made redundant.
And Thank God for that day.
New Years Eve 2020.
All I could say was Hooray.
I know it sounds insulting.
But I couldn't give a fuck.
Never work in catering.
They treat you like muck.
