My entitled boss demands that I never take a bathroom break, claiming that any time I'm away from my position,

0:06.2

I'm inadvertently causing massive delays in our restaurant. But after dealing with this for so long

0:11.5

and feeling so stressed out and so incredibly busy,

0:14.8

I'm finally at my breaking point, and right now I seriously don't know what to do.

0:19.1

Here's what happened.

ordered and it honestly overall just seemed pretty calm I told my boss that I was

1:08.1

going to the bathroom and when I left it was completely quiet and I had already

1:12.0

cleared all the orders and I saw no one waiting.
