Inhale

I went to work this am saw my work schedule and decided broken English or not I had to let them know about my limitations, I had 16 rooms’ two floors and 7 check outs. I am already again walking with a limp. I took the Dr's note to the manager and he sent
me to health services. I spent five minutes with a nurse who released me back to work because my Dr filled restrictions on a form not recognized by my work place. She gave me the correct paper work and told me to have the Dr fill that one out bring it back and a committee will evaluate it and get back to me on what they decide. Because I am an employee under a year of service they might not have a place I can work with restrictions, no guarantee.

I went back to my work area and the boss said "good no restrictions" he said he could have me work any where. I told him ok. He then said IF I wanted I could go home and call in sick until I get the paper work back to work and evaluated. I told him I wasn't going to go home because I knew that would be like I had quit...(been there at my past job) He talked about how he was only concerned about my health and such but could have me work but didn't want me to. I sat there knowing it was a bunch of crap but held some truth to it...my health was important. I went through the motions feeling I was there for the last time, my Dr told me I could not do that type of work or I would damage my spine to the point of no return.

I left and told him Monday morning I will go to the Drs office and get the forms filled out and take them to health services. It is a shot in the dark but I feel I should do it for future reference. This is just too weird, two jobs ending because of my back, good Lord.

My bills are due in a week; surgery is pending on insurance I might lose if they decide there is no place for me to work with the restrictions my Dr has listed. I have my dental procedures set up to start the 10th of July. I wandered around the house today feeling a bit out of sorts, I felt the out come would be that they would have me on light duty until my Dr filled out the correct forms. I felt they might transfer me to another department until I get my back straightened out; the short time I have been there didn’t register until today on my way home.

I could have stayed and cleaned rooms and if something happened I feel certain that a lawyer would have had a heyday with them saying the form was incorrect but would that be worth further damage to my spine. I think not.

I’ll live with the decision I made. I made a call to inquire how long it would be until I got notification from the committees decision, she said most of the time between four to six weeks, and no I didn’t lose my job…I just need to keep up the insurance payments and after a week I would be on a medical leave pending the committees decision.

{{My boss just called from home, my record or job will not be tarnished, decisions now are my own.}}

Exhale.

" When you understand that what you're telling is just a story. It isn't happening anymore. When you realize the story you're telling is just words, when you can just crumble it up and throw your past in the trashcan, then we'll figure out who you're going to be"
