Hello everyone. First of all I would like to thank everyone in advanced. I have a storied career at my company for 13 years. It’s been very successful but I’ve reached my physical and mental breaking point. Grocery stores and retail in general can really destroy you.
I feel as if I have developed PTSD from a decades worth of pressure and stress.
My boss berated me for calling out and I decided that was my final straw. I was wondering if
A. should I go to a doctor about my ptsd? I have good benefits and disability available.
B. Go on sabbatical? leave the company completely?
C. I have already started the process of LOA and I’m waiting to hear back from HR.
I am nearly illiterate when it comes to policy and standing up for myself. The employee handbook might be a good place to start. I am feeling helpless and un knowledgeable. What’s my next move?
