my job isn’t great I make 15 an hour I have 14 months in but I enjoy doing it and enjoy who I do it for. They talk to me about a long career but I haven’t taken it seriously.
Then one day I have a complete nervous breakdown on the job. Totally incapacitated and unable to stand or hold my balance.
at first while I was seeing doctors they said just come work in the office we will put you on a desk or whatever you can do so I tried that and couldn’t walk to the front door. I was crying and wanted to give up and quit.
Once they realized how bad it was they put a team together to figure out how to help me. If we do this he can do that.. etc. then they said “this is Samson250 he’s not doing any of that we have to help him” so they planned it out with the corporate office and scripted what I had to say to get on short term disability so I wouldnt burn savings or PTO.
I was keeping them updated weekly but I knew they needed a time frame so I connected my Doctor with my office and said tell them whatever you feel necessary and that the final decision to return to work is yours. I’m a little over halfway to returning and in constant contact with my office manager who I just now got off the phone with a minute ago.
when this is over and I come back I’m going savage for those guys. closest thing to a family I’ve ever had. Im as replaceable as a battery to them but they did this for me and except me for who I am and the issues I have.
