This past week I got a complaint against me to my boss from one of my coworkers. She noticed that I'm stepping away from my desk at work and am away anywhere from 5-15 minutes on average. I am using the restroom and have been dealing with gut health issues to cause this need.
The boss is now referring me to HR to get me to submit a request for accommodation in order to be able to use the restroom as needed… I just want to be able to work and use the restroom as needed.
Now I'm scheduling an unnecessary doctor's visit and taking time off work, just to appease to this coworker. About done playing corporate games, I show up and work hard every single day.
