Title: To tell or not to tell...
Post by Cerberus on Aug 5th, 2004, 12:04am
that is my question.

I just started the new job, had orientation today. First day of actual work is next wednesday. Do I tell em about my CH now up front?  Or do I wait till later.

I know kinda a stupid question, but, do they really need to know NOW? I wouldn't want it to become an issue when I am full blown in cycle, but I dont want em worryin about my capabilities being limited either...the last job was easy enough, just told em when I found out what CH was had been workin there 8 yrs already. This is a bit different of a situation.

I ain't too smucken fart ... or I don't remember ... are you in cycle now?  If not ... fuckem ... let them see what a good worker you are first ... then work it in to the conversation after you been there a bit ...  

If you are in cycle, harder question to answer ... I would still try to hold off telling them for as long as possible, till they see what sort of a worker you are ...

Good luck my fine man tittied friend !!!  And a nice ass you gots, too!

Hey!  Now it is me, the one who tells you to listen to your wife!  So, listen to your wife.

LMFAO!

Yeah, listen to your wife.  She is obviously a smart lady.

BTW, your are NOT required to disclose that you have CH.  I've had it for 12 years and have only just recently told my supervisor because he is a friend.  I left out alot of details because most people just don't understand.

Best Wishes!

I need to get my wife on the computer....maybe we will talk more   ;;D

best thing is to not tell them until they know you are a good worker.  If they find out now they might can you.

Ramon,

I just started a new job 3 months ago and asked the same question. I also got the same answer, don't tell them unless you don't want the job.

BTW: you should talk to your wife more offten she's a smart woman.

Hi Woobie, love you

Love and hugs

Bec

Uhhhhh how did that go " Rank, Sex, Serial #" that’s it, those fuckers wait till the last minuet to lay your ass off, I don't telllem shit they don't need to know, legally. If Imitrex works for you, you can always take a ten minuet shit.  :o

Lee, that don't work  ;;D

I pretty much agree. If they are pricks and will fire you for CH, I hope you can say "screw 'em."

You can always give them info after the fact and say that you can't be sure that they will ever repeat themselves and that it doesn't last.

The peeps at the NC Meet & Greet were doing
just that.
We could see them on cam.
They were sitting right next to each other but,
would be conversing via the comp instead of just
turning to each other to talk.
It was way,way funny.

Have to agree with yall on this one. Let'em see ya in action in the work force FIRST. Then when your in cycle print out the stuff ya need and hand off to da boss. Once ya done that you just gave insight to another person that may not have a clue of what CH is, hun ya just "learned'em"
BTW- Listen to da wife shes a smart cookie  ;;D
PF wishes, Leesa  ;;D  Miss ya both LOTS  :-*

PS: Woobie, can I still cop a feel of da man boobies every once in a while?? Please I promise Ill be gentle. LMMFAO  ;)

I wouldn't make a big deal out of it until you decide you want to keep the job. Then I would provide some documentation to human resources.

I use Lee's method.  It's been on a need to know basis for work, and so far, they haven't asked.

I wouldn't say a word, Ramon. Not until it becomes absolutely necessary.

And by then it may be to late. Late to work, days out, etc. etc. equals bye bye.

If you have documentation of your situation on file with human resources then by law they may have to provide you with a "reasonable accomodation". No documentation up front and you have less of a case.

You're a good worker and that's all that matters right now.


And what happens later when the beast decides to take over on a daily basis?

Is there a probationary period with the job?

This was my main concern...and BTW youse guys, I  DO listen to woobs from time to time.
another thing to consider is that I have worked under two of the current managers, one recently and one several times in the past...one of which knows the breakdown on my CH and the other, not as much but knows about it.
That is why I asked...

It will be good to have their backup but documentation is always best when dealing with corporate.
