bit of context before I get into the question. I work retail. It isn't glorious but its a job. We have new people due to the virus and one of them was working with me. It's a busy day and we're having trouble with getting shopping carts into the store, I go for my lunch about 45 minutes after I'm supposed to due to the new guy not being amazing with his job yet(again I don't totally blame him, because he's new and we only have 2 people on despite 4 people supposed to be on(1 called in as his gf is autoimmune, and another got sent to another section of the store).

Anyways, eventually I say screw it and go on my break, letting my supervisors know as well as the guy at the door know so he can let the new guy know since I couldn't find him for whatever reason. I come back, immediately get hauled into the office and complaints thrown on me by one of the managers because "I'm supposed to make sure the store is filled with carts before I leave on my lunch break, and I should have went 45 minutes ago". No concept of me helping out the new guy.

Long story short, she says to me "I should get security to follow you around one of these days to see how much time your wasting". I'm bringing it up to HR on Monday because honestly that nonsense doesn't fly with me. I get that its busy, and that things don't always go as planned, but my god.

Funny enough I mentioned that to the security at our store and he laughed and said good luck with getting me to do that, I'm too busy dealing with this virus bit, doing 3x my normal duties.

My work doesn't usually lay off for whatever reason, but would that be something that would garner a lay off for me? I'm already having a hard time keeping up with college work(we just started this week and already have 4 assignments due next week plus a test, and our prof refused to teach us for some fucked up reason. Thankfully we have someone from another class doing the same course and he's linking all the online lectures his prof is showing his class which is super useful). So it would be nice to have a little downtime to help focus on class work due to work giving me nearly 40 hrs a week during class time.

TLDR: Boss says to me "I should get security to follow you around one of these days to see how much time your wasting", is that case for a layoff?
