FMLA retaliation - anyone?



Recommended Posts

today was my first day back to work after having restrictions lifted, and I am being treated markedly badly compared to before. My supervisor had asked me to wait to have my surgery and I felt I could not put it off a few months.

There is nothing I can prove, but there was some real ugly treatment today and spread all the way in the schedule this week.,

Has anyone else experienced this?

I will be spending the evening on job applications.

Document, document, document - and report. You may decide you want to work elsewhere, but that doesn't mean your employer should get away with this, it's against the law.

Thanks. I was in so much shock over it today, I will start gathering supporting information tomorrow, and hoping something will come of my job applications.

boy, when you change your life, you find out who your friends are, eh?

Well, it's been my experience that your friends are people who don't have to be paid to hang out with you ;-)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
