How far have you been able to push your employer with your BP dx? What is the real legal limit in the US? Is HR obligated to keep their mouth shut about my disease?
I have been self employed for 7 years, so I come and go as I please. If I am lucky, I will be hired FT with a company 50 mi away from me in OC (which might be equivilent to 1:30 drive each way). I want to stay with my pdoc here in LA and start new therapy here as well (depending on my insurance). Can I tell HR that I am telecommuting 1x wk b'c of the distance and my pdoc/therapist appt? This position is 50% travel as a regional manager, so I will already be working out of the office alot.
I have NO clue about a real environment at a work place. I had only one FT job, right out of college and it wasn't very "official" in terms of things like this.
Any advise will be truly appreciated. Shouldn't stress before I get the job, but I really need the benefits. I just hope my meds work and I will be able to keep a "real" job!
