My doctor recommend at first, I told my doctor I think id be able to handle 6 hrs, I was wrong. Sitting upright causes too much pain to bare and impossible concentrate on work like that. Laying back like I am now don't put pressure on my tailbone, which causes 2 of my bulged discs to push on...

Other don't have any ada or fmla concerns. But we do have specialized laptops we have to log in from and punch in/out and only can work from those laptops. All of my work is tracked by my unique id, in any department the work is tightly tracked.

Yes and that is what really vot me stumped when I was told that it wasn't an option because of a "legal issue" related to fmla. I really hope they're not just blowing smoke or something.

I'm more afraid if I request a new accommodation that I'll just be fired, if my doctor says work from home is the only option. I have a family to support, as slightly advised by Army Judge, i decided to try and open discussion a bit "lightly" with civility and a open mind. Really I just asked my...

Taking legal action would literally be the last thing I would want. I love my job and the company. I really hate using the it's not "fair" saying. I've had fmla for about 2 years now and yes it's a formal accommodation. It's not just a note from the doctor, I had to get paperwork from HR for my...

I started a thread in December titled " FMLA leave threatened to lose full time status" This is somewhat in relation to that thread, in my paperwork to reduce my hours to 30 a week, it was also stated that "Working from home may be a reasonable accommodation". Now my employer did allow the 30...

Yeah, my doctor has brought it up,it may be one I'll be trying after the new year. I researched it quite a bit. Its scary to have a electronics implement tho lol

Yes, my doctor put 30 hours a week for 4 to 5 years. Of course this changes if we can get a procedure or surgery that will work. I'm already setting up to get my nerves burned again right awsy, it helped last time but nerves grow back. Thank you for the best wishes. I really hope the pattern is...

That sounds about right, Im trying to just last out to end of January. I get new insurance that has 0 deductible. Hopefully I can get a survey to get me out of this horrible pain and finally get back to making money again full time. If i lose my benefits though, its never going to happen. What...

Thanks, the accommodation is ADA. So my schedule right now is 30 hours per week. I ONLY take days off that are covered by FMLA. Though, they said if I have a pattern of working under the 30 hours that I would be taken off full time, losing, Insurance benefits and everything else. They did not...
