I HAD A MAJOR ACCIDENT AT WORK AND I AM TOO EMBARRASSED TO GO BACK!!!

Question

So yesterday i was at work and i was feeling really really sick in the stomach and it sort of just creeped up on me. I told my boss and she got the first aid officer to come assit me. On the way to the first aid room so i could lie down i had an accident in my pants and a little bit of diarrhea came out i ccouldn'tcontrol it, it just came all of a sudden. And ran down the back of my legs and on the floor, I seriously almost died of embarrassment Now i'm way too embarrassed to go back. What if he told everyone and they make fun of me. What sshouldi do?

Answer 1

If this officer is the gentleman that he was trained to be then you have no problems.  If something does arise out from this, then contact your boss and be sure to let them know that what happened to you was not a joke and that you were sick and this was not a laughing or joking manner.

Answer 2

You should go back and hold your head up high. You have nothing to be embarrassed about, you were ill! And if that guy tells anybody, you have the right to tell him off and report him for breaching your confidentiality. He shouldn't tell anyone, that is unprofessional and rude. You go back and act like nothing happened, and don't act all ashamed or anything. Be strong and confident, no one should make fun of you, they've probably had many embarrassing moments before so they would have no right whatsoever to make fun of you. Just walk in there with your head up high, and remember you are a strong confident woman who shouldn't be ashamed of ANYTHING. I would wish you luck, but you just don't need it girl!  

Answer 3

I don't know, I would quit that job if that happened to me though

Answer 4

Legally they can not say anything to anyone other than those in management that may need to know for attendance reasons, and even then they are not given full disclosure. If for any reason you should be teased or harrassed by anyone when you return you can sue the company. I would bet that it will not be an issue. Go back to work and act like usual and see what happens. The worst case scenario is that someone makes a comment about it, and at that point you simply get up and take your things and find yourself a good attorney.

Answer 5

call your manager & ask if he told any body.

Answer 6

Ethal & Ella gave you great answers. And don't be embarrassed. Imagine starting your monthly as a nurse's aide( in all white uniform). No one said a word when I returned. See, it could be worse.. I sure did alot of crying though..

Best of Luck...
