Update to Job fiasco

[Deleted]

So, I called my HR. It seems like my manager was out of line for writing me up, especially since Best Buy knew I was ill when they hired me. Hr was very nice and from now on if I have a seizure or other related illness, I just need to call in and basically say that I am calling in due to covered medical reasons. I will also hopefully have my write ups taken off, as well. 

Oh, and for the poster who asked which med I am on, it is lorazepam (ativan) .5 mg tablets, twice a day. Like I said, looooow dose trial period. 

Thank you for encouraging me to contact HR and fight this. I probably wouldn't have if you all hadn't said something.

I didn't see your earlier post (I just read it though), and I'm glad that you spoke up for yourself and had a good outcome. My mom developed epilepsy after a freak accident in a beauty parlor (no, I can't make this shit up) and didn't always have the most understanding employers.

Good for you! I'm so glad to hear this.

Good job. But I would take your employer name out of your post. Also, send your boss and your HR person an email confirming this conversation, in case your boss becomes crappy again.
