My boss just walked into my office while I was sleeping on the floor

I feel this. I called out of work this morning because i havent been feeling well and then ended up working from home about 2 hours into my work day because I heard my laptop going off (despite being logged off), and felt inclined to log on to get work done. I need to be in the office two days a week and even that is too much for me. I'm overwhelmed because none of my work clothes fit me, I lose sleep when I need to go into the office, there's literally no point in me going into the office because I can do everything from home without my annoying coworkers bothering me all damn day, I just feel like shit and would rather be in the comfort of my own home doing this shit job that I absolutely hate. Also, maternity leave is a literal joke. 12 weeks with my baby at half my pay, only to be expected to jump right back into everything at the end of it. I've hit my breaking point today. You did nothing wrong, take that nap, it's the least your job can do for you.

i feel like you are a kindred spirit ❤️ thank you

Girl!!! I used to work at a hotel overnight as the auditor. I used to do my work and sleep on the floor on top of a bunch of blankets from 3 am-5am 😆 one day i overslept til I had to open the doors for breakfast and nothing was made 😂 you are not alone. I hate it for you too that you have to work during your third trimester. I had to quit that job right before 3rd T cuz the owner would not stop yelling at me when he would get drunk smfh. Long as you can try to-work-if you cant i promise things will work their way out for you just don’t lose hope 🙏🏻 i put in for unemployment for the abusive treatment. But in my state they only pay 81 a week for that so that barely covers the lights. 🤷‍♀️ my boyfriend is having to do it all basically. But better that than be the target of some rich mans aggression right? Im just a blue collar slave to them anyway….

agree 💯

I literally just logged on to the app thinking "I'm so exhausted I want to cry and I need to talk to people who understand". Your post made me feel not alone!


We'll get through this, mama! You gotta do what you gotta do to power through

Working 12 hour shifts on nights as a CNA 3 days out the week, I will admit it's an easy thing since I work in a assisted living and really can sit throughout most of it, but now when it comes to do the morning get up and shower list before I leave for work, it's getting to the point I have to start hours ahead if I wanna get my work done and stopping bout every 15 minutes I'm not doing too much but what I am is exhausting not to mention the girl I normally work with on my Tue and Thursdays in school now so by 2 am I'm all alone lol

Definitely get a note from your physician to hand to HR. You want to document and create a paper trail. This would be a reasonable accommodation.

The worst thing you could do would be written up or feel pressure leave your job. Stay the course.

that is a great idea
