It’s something that yes I’m in the wrong for, but the person who is making themselves a victim is turning it into a massive production. They knew that we had shift together and they didn’t try to find coverage or anything and decided to make it a huge deal as the shift was starting about them not coming in. Which I know that the others involved do not want.
Tell them that they are crossing the boundaries of the people affected by making a scene like that. They may be trying to make others aware of your actions and shame you, or shame you personally idk, but if they don’t care how they’re affecting the actual victims then maybe you can complain to a higher up about it.
I finally got to talk to my therapist about the entire situation. Told him everything that happened and everything that my friends said. He told me that when the ones who actually are technically, the victims are ready to talk to them, but he also said that this does not seem like as big as others are making it/what I did wasn’t wrong or abnormal
