OHSA (oh shit)

I wrote OSHA a couple of weeks ago. I didn't expect them to reply much less show up unannounced but boy howdy when she walked in with a clipboard I was secretly rejoicing right up until she told me there was nothing they could do about the heat. Or the fly bites because I'm the only one that will talk to her about the flies. The other employee that had complaints about the fly bites .. .would not talk about them to OSHA.
When the inspector walked in my boss was sitting at a table with some USFOODS salesmen. The moment she showed her ID badge, my boss had two employees go in the back and staple the OSHA/Employee Rights posters up on the wall. That sucked. I wanted OSHA to see that he was hiding that information from us. Funny thing is the moment the posters went up on the wall, everyone was standing around staring at them and reading them as if they had never seen them before. (Well, they hadn't).
Well OSHA lady said she needed to talk to a couple of employees. The eighteen year old went first. Then I pretended to not want to talk to her because I have a class at five. My boss told me I had to talk to her then he changed his mind and said "WHy don't you go on, if you have class?" I think the light bulb went on in his head but I said "No, no, I have time."
I identified myself to the woman as the one who wrote OSHA and she gave me her card and told me if I was fired or my hours cut, due to the inspection, to call her and they would open up an investigation. I'm protected under the whistleblower's act.
I got to class about four fifty and the teacher didn't show up until five thirty: by which time I was feeling VERY ILL. I realized at that time that I had eaten some salad at work today. And I should not have eaten that because it made me very sick, which I am right now. My temperature is 97.2 , I have chills, and diarrhea; same as the last time I ate at Taco Bell in Anchorage *SIGH*.
Well, I'm not looking forward to going in tomorrow, my boss ... is going to have some choice words to say about all of this. He's going to assume it was me and give me holy hell, probably make my life shittier than it is. I don't care. He got cited for bad wiring in the building, I think that is about all they could cite him for. Well at least the posters are up on the wall now, and if he takes them down I'm calling my OSHA friend, who said they got here as soon as they could, what with the Gulf Oil Spill.
My knees are weak from today and from being sick and I'm really worried about how I will be treated by people at work but you know, someone has got to protect the lives and well being of others and if I didn't do it, someone was going to end up being hurt at some point.
When I drove off my boss was outside the back door standing by his fishing boat talking on the cell phone. I guess I ruined his fishing trip for the night. Damn, I suck.
I had to leave class early, due to needing to not be there. First of all I was FREEZING and secondly I needed some real private time in the bathroom... remind me not to eat at work. Unless it's oatmeal.
