Have asked and this is where im at - go to work unwell or find another job. They changed the rules after I started working there.

I know that- they created a business requirement so now wfh doesn’t meet their job role requirements, so now you’re fired or going into work unwell.

Did that to reduce to 1 day a week. But it doesn’t help during flare ups, at which point they want detailed medical info each time and end dates /durations/return to work plans . It doesn’t work like that unfortunately.

I just want to be productive and work - but at home so I can deal with my symptoms as needed and not be on public display. Plus the exertion of travel and being in an office all day. Sigh.

Looked at ndis as I need help with disability. The sheer amount of doctors letters, assessments etc required is going to be insane, stressful and probably costly into the thousands. Then there’s the long wait times (over 6 months to get a response) Hardly accessible. Im struggling so hard to stay employed - wfh was so great for disabled people and now the return to office mandates has my job being threatened. It has no actual physical requirement (tech) but they insist that going into the office for “connection” with the internal team (who is across multiple states anyway ) is a “mandatory business requirement”.

Fucking joke at the expense of my health declining even further.

I would totally read those

Hugs. That’s awful.

Anyone involved in support groups for chronic illness /pain? I have zero support group but feel validated seeing posts on instagram that mirror my experience.

I was overwhelmed by cringe and couldn’t watch the whole thing.

Wow that’s dedication on a cold Sunday morning

Why do you say that?

Doing my best to avoid it so far. Not much of a life but can’t risk it unfortunately. Hope you get better quickly op.

I’d like that compared to everyone wearing headphones and being in random teams meetings all day. Can’t concentrate. Have to wear headphones and play music louder than I’d like.
