Reason For Time Off

[Sandra_Baby87 56]

I havent had my surgery yet...its May 10th. but ive only been at my job 2 months..itll b 3 on May 2nd. I havent told my job anything frankly because...i dont know what to say and im scared ill lose my job. i really need my job it took me 2 years looking for a perm job while working temp. My surgeons office says they want me to take 2-3 weeks off. but thats a really long time. But my husband tells me to not stress...that stress can also affect the surgery and that we'll b ok. but obviously i need to tell my job wether its good or bad outcome. another thing is i need to pay 2500 upfront so if i tell my job now im scared theyll let me go before i hit my 3 months and therefore ill lose out on 2 more paychecks before surgery that we're counting on to go towards the 2500.

ughhh im just confused.

Why not just keep it simple I have to have a medical procedure and will be out of the office for at a min. 1 week and at the most 3 weeks. I had mine on 3/21 and went back to work for full days the following Thursday. But worked 1/2 days the Monday after my surgery

hey annemarie.

thats probably what im going to end up doing. Because in reality that is kinda tha truth. I had started this WHOLE process towards the end of last yr. So ill just tell them i had been waiting and finally got approved and the date was scheduled for May 10th. Can they let me go bc of it?

aww thanks! im hangin in there! i think im gonna get started on my liquid diet earlier bc i know ive gained sinced my initial consultation with the surgeon back on Janurary.

weighed in at 293 back then. im sure ive gained. and talked to the surgeons office and the said he would like for us to lose about 10lbs. not that hard but try adding about 15 extra that i probably gained. ooowiiee!! lol. jesus help me!
