I’ve had this happen to me when I disclosed I needed time off for mental health issues.
Never again.
This isn’t even satire, the company I was at had a whole mental health campaign at the time.
Currently going through this. I loathe my company and its higher ups. Crisis after crisis after crisis. Never any acknowledgement, let alone reward.
My company offers two free mental health consultations. Per year. Also in the midst of a “we care!” campaign.
No you don’t. In fact the opposite.
Sometimes I wish I worked for the Mafia. At least then we wouldn’t have to pretend anyone cares about doing the right thing.
Who’s more honest about their organization being a family, the Mafia or a corporation?
Sounds like you may have a wrongful dismissal case under the disabilities act… If you have a union rep or pro bono attorney available, it might be worth pursuing for real
Non union company, and the excuse used was that I was “unreliable”.
I wasn’t dismissed, I was just passed over for promotions and projects, exactly like this satirical article. Ended up leaving for a much higher paying job anyway.
Happening right now. Immunocompromised infant in the ICU. Company leaders last week while in ER and hospital admission: “what can we do for you; anything you need; what do you need?” This week, now that we know our needs: “yeah, remote work doesn’t fit our culture.”
I’m in I.T. Fuck me for wanting to keep my kid from dying from a common cold.
This isn’t even satire… The Onion is really struggling to beat actual news in absurdity lately
This is definitely not satire.
Adding my vote to the “this isn’t satire, it happened to me exactly like that” pile…

Happened to me. Keep your mouth shut. ❤️
