So earlier this year i joined the social work industry and it was going fine until. I did not sleep to make notes. I did not eat to see clients that sometimes ws would cancel in the afternoon.

Then 2 weeks go by i talk to my doctor he says it is okay for me to work just to not carry anything heavy above 10 pounds.

So earlier this year i joined the social work industry and it was going fine until. I did not sleep to make notes. I did not eat to see clients that sometimes ws would cancel in the afternoon. Then i started getting the hang of it and guess what my appendix decide to crap out on me later so this happens oct 28, get the surgery almost 6 week bed rest, no medical pay because suprise suprise havent been on the job for longer than 60 days and does not have insurance. Then 2 weeks go by i talk to my doctor he says it is okay for me to work just to not carry anything heavy above 10 pounds. So i barely get a paycheck to cover my rent and to cover some expenses like groceries well the job or rather hr says ey you know what you havent been here for longer than 60 days soo your shit out of luck no pay for your medical leave. Or pto or sick leave basically im screwed all over. Then guess what I get covid and i inform my company just to be on the safe side i am able to conduct some meetings online but guess what protocol dictates i cant go back to work due to covid even if it is online. So long story short i worked less than 2 days and will now be trying to survive on that for next month and the depression gets worse. I have some people to help me but I they do not have the resources to help me. A small part of me want to stream or even get another job something to get money. Too all the fellow social workers out there stay safe for the first 60 days do not do anything until you get that insurance. Rant over. Mods if this is not allowed remove it
