What’s the actual problem here? If the expectation is that you work in the office and you have a physical problem that prevents you from doing so, there should be a process for requesting a medical accommodation (ie allowing you to work differently than others). Did you follow that process? Did you ask for help from anyone in HR? What “emergency” are you talking about? It’s hard to give you any reasonable advice with such vague information.
Probably reaching out to IT. Also maybe I’m just not understanding but where did she direct you to?
Back into the office. I tried to tell her that I couldn't be there
... because I couldn't breathe. This is very serious and she's had some weird personal vendetta against me, it seems. I do not appreciate the lie or knowing she could ha e prevented the situation from going worse, and she brushed it off way too casually in my opinion. How can I not only retrieve that message and if not, how do I proceed? Or should I just cut my loss and just move on to the next job?
Web search says the Teams message could be recoverable based on retention policy of the organization. You can try this--- untested: To recover a deleted Teams message, follow these steps:
Open Microsoft Teams and navigate to the chat where the message was deleted.
Click on the "..." (more options) next to the chat name.
Select "Manage chat" from the dropdown menu.
Look for the "Deleted messages" section if available.
If the message is not there, check your email for any notifications or summaries from Teams.
Contact your IT administrator for assistance if the message cannot be recovered.
