1. have you talked to your boss?
sounds a little like you freaked them out, and now they don't know what to do. seems like management needs to hear directly from you at this point. is this a big company? do they have an HR person? it would help if they were big enough to have a written policy on this sort of thing. i would think that a casino gets all kinds of people working for them, so there might be some precedent.

2. This sounds the same as just about every job I have ever been on, and I disclose nothing.
I think it is common on any job to get flak from all sides.
Any job requires a very thick skin. Meltdown won't help. The only thing you can do is smile and agree.
It seems or sounds phony but it's phony anyway, in that you are a social worker, but now acting as food server.
It's a paycheck. And I know it's the same with the customers at the table. They will be very rude, change their mind, complain, etc. And you just have to smile and say, oh, we will fix it for you.
It's merely a temporary inconvenience. Bear with it, til you can get back on a better job.
