Five years working for a company who's motto is "it's what's inside that counts", that preaches how we're all teammates and we're looking out for one another, after five years of *** busting for them, they let me know today that I have to take a leave of absence or I won't be able to work for the company anymore.
I got a call on Friday of last week with this little ultimatum (and the woman in HR claims its not an ultimatum, we're "looking out for YOUR benefit") and gave me "the weekend to think about it". I'm taking vacation to celebrate the anniversary of my first date with my fiancee and I'm told to call on the second day of my vacation to give my decision.
Speaking to the woman in HR, she explains to me that LOA is my only option because I am "an unfair burden to my teammates".
A company that claimed to be affording me reasonable accomidations turns around and says these accomidations mean that I cannot work for the company. (?!???!)
I drive all the way to work todat (50 miles) but halfway there, the woman from HR and the district manager both call me. I CANNOT report for work because my listed restrictions leave a liability for the company YET I've been doing what I can in the perimeters set AND have gotten somewhat better, Another trip to the doctor would confirm this (set for July 24th) but no.
LOA is the only way.
I have to hope this leads to a way to support myself.
Helps somehow with medical.
Five years. For what?
