Very sad this evening. I tried to lower my hours at work. Saw my doc and he ordered 8am to 1pm hours instead of 40 hour week. I was good with this, but my employer not so much. They told me that I have to work 40 hours to stay employed there. They sort of played a number on me. Told me that they would follow doctor's orders, but I have the same caseload, same appointment schedule, and would have to take new cases. I'm a case manager. So the upshot is I need to work 40 hours. I hate myself. My therapist told me I should not be working full time, but my spouse doesn't want to lose any income. I wish I could just get off this ride.
