[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2153270, member: 475037"] I think part of the problem is the “snack” I’m not sure what you are eating but if it is a variety of foods versus gluco tabs or not even the exact same thing every day (like always ***** bears), then I could see other employees complaining because they can’t snack, customers maybe even commenting on the person behind the counter eating etc. Or even complaining your stuff is in the way? Employees might know it’s medical but could easily think too much leeway is being given or not really understanding why. I think that if it’s a bottle if gluco tabs or maybe ***** bears and you stick with the same thing and explain I have to have something quickly, I would think they should give. Then if you need to follow up with another more carb food you go to another area? You said you are a barista and to me that sounds like another area shouldn’t be that far? But if it is maybe you can just duck around a corner? But I bet if you address the issue as I need it for medical and you show them the 1 specific thing you will use, I think they should give. But a few gluco tabs or ***** bears in a pocket would also work. [/QUOTE]
