I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
because I had a skin staph infection that was contagious! Of course I'm not going to come in. What dancer wants to get up on stage after someone was just rolling around on the pole and floor KNOWING they have a spreadable grossness. I used to get it repeatedly as a youngin', but haven't seen it in like 10 years. I mean really, is this grounds for giving me bullshit? By bullshit I mean, "we're cracking down on the schedule and we really need girls..blah blah". I know I wouldn't want to be up after someone with something I have. Anyways, had to rant.
Besides, he know I would have worked if i could have. I have surgery coming up and NEED to store the money away. GRRRR
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
Oh yeah, and I went to the DR. and got a note, just to prove I'm not making shit up. Besides, the last week of my life has been boring without work. That's why I've posted so much on SW lately. LOL
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
he must not know what staph is?!?!?!? what a wierdo!
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
You should have gone in,rubbed all over him and gone home. Then when he catches it you can say "told you so"!
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
Well, on behalf of all your fellow dancers, I say a big THANK YOU for staying at home!
Get well soon!
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
Yes, Thank You! for being responsible about this. A girl at my club caught a staph infection and nearly died from it. She was in the hospital for a week with her knee swelled up the size of a basketball. She highly suspects catching it at the club. I honestly wouldn't be surprised. I don't know what the manager is thinking, what a dumbass.
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
My fiance is a diver and got staph on the job and it sucks. Your manager is just stoopid. Get well soon girl. And good luck on the surgery.
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
What an idiot. I think staph is going to get more prevalent bc of all the MMA stuff that's popular nowadays.

are you kidding me?
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
Feel better soon. I had a staph infection awhile ago, it was not fun. Unfortunately, I danced while I had it, b/c my doctor didn't make it clear to me how contagious it was. I STILL feel guilty about working with a staph infection, but it was at a small club and to my knowledge, nobody else got it.

Nope. Those guys are rolling around mats with 20 other guys, one of them can have it and then they all do. I've seen it many times.
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
Most likely they don't know what a staph infection is. If you didn't get a note from the doc ordering you not to work for ___ number of days, you should have.
I would find a description of staph infection from a place like WebMD or Wiki, print it and shove it in their faces.
Re: I got bullshit from a dancer and manager...
^^^I got a note. They just thought it was a lame excuse. Oh well, they seem to get it know. Sometimes I think he likes to give me shit for fun. Just to see if he can freak me out a little. Overall he's a great manager, which is what shocked me about his reaction. I think he just likes to see me perplexed all the time.
Not sure I got it from training MMA. It could be, but I doubt it. I got it continouslly for YEARS when I was younger for no apparent reason. It's been gone for a long long time and all of a sudden cropped up. Not sure if it is even from an outside source. But, if it is it could be from either work or mma training.
