WFH Employee Quits After 4 Hours After Realizing How Dismissive Employer Is Of Their Disability

Starting a new job comes with a huge mix of emotions. Yes, you feel excitement about upcoming challenges and opportunities, but you also have anxiety about performing well, getting to know the team you’re now a part of, and adapting to an unfamiliar environment. It’s a lot to take in.

When Reddit user MudiMom joined an in-home veterinary euthanasia company, however, they felt like they were ready. After all, they’ve had years of experience in the industry. But just hours into their first day, there was already a problem. The manager didn’t like the chair MudiMom was using… working from home, for a remote position.

    Jeez on the days I work from home they are lucky if I am dressed. I have honestly spent a whole workday lying in bed with my laptop propped up on my belly. It's none of their business.

    Quitting let them off the hook. And I wouldn't have asked to go back to a regular chair. Do your job, document everything, IF they fire you THEN you hammer them.
