°deep sigh°

I've been back to work for 2 days and the stress is already starting to build.

If you don't know I went on very much leave last week before I went off I got thing in order so things would be ready for when I got back because I know this week will be busy but do you think it went smoothly .... hell no.

My manager was very much aware what I had on when I come back and knows (due to me constantly reminding him but it just it's sticking added to the frustration) about my medication reduction.

So I had a very big upgrade to do yesterday (which again my manager knew about before I went on leave) but he still allow a meet that I had to attend for a big °project move° to be done half way thru the upgrade I was going so I had to stop it to do that and there was a 3rd party coming in to rack a sever that I didn't know about but had to escort and babysit them in our data centre while they racked it and my manger scanned off again stalling my upgrade (so I wannt in a happy mood for headway bristol social group last night) so I come in today to go to Swindon for 8 am I had to be in work @ 6am to pick up the van then do things in Swindon an bring it all back to bristol an the van gear slipped a I was coming off the motorway doin 50 with kit in the back lingerie van back to th office unloaded it th gear box slipped a further 3 times causing the engine to start smoking so because my manger vanished I left early and he's had to deal with the upgrade fail from yesterday (oh boo hoo if you left me alone and didn't interrupt me it would be upgraded) and there is only one person in the entire office (my managers manager who understand the fact I have brain Injury and mental illness and medication reduction) who every time my manager plays the we will dismal you for poor performance card (f#$king hello medication side effects) he has to console me and to top it all off I have wait a further FOUR months to see biru who put me on this medication and I have to find time to see my go to get more of the reduced medication and have a review and I've only been back from dawlish 4 days and I feel very lost and frustrated

Hi Bexx, sounds like your loveky week off came to an abrupt end - that’s reslly tough. Isn’t it always the way that you know what your doing at work , and someone who should know better comes in and sabotages what should have been a good job. I’m sorry yiuve had to deal with all this on your first week bsvk in the office. Can you speak to the senior manager about it or an HR person. Is there a thing called ‘reasonable adjustment’ in your contract - like them agreeing not to change your agreed work load without notice? Can you ask for this to be made a condition of your contract under reasonable adjustments to make sure he doesn’t do that type of thing again ? I hope the rest of your week is more calm.

Take care x

Thanks it's the senior manager who has to come and swoop in to comfort me and give my manager the bollocking unfortunately this has been happening since the side effects first started in August and I got my first poor performance = dismal bollacking = senior manager giving my manager a bollocking process before I knew it was the medication but knew something was going wrong so alerted my GP when I came back from Derby/Nottingham in start of November last year, I was thinking about ask hr how do I put in unfair complaint about my manager as they know I have a bi (they have seen the headway article and I believe they have shared it with the external and internal nhs mental health teams idk) but are unaware of the recent issue's and other people have said hr won't do anything but I haven't had chance yet to fire off a quick email because I havet manages to get my chest measured to see if the medication has allow it to deflate (which I don't think it has judging by (bra) as well as the brain fog clearing or book the following federal appointment and I know that I will have to fight with the receptionist to get it as they will said we have no appointments call back tomorrow

And due to this stupid heat I can't sleep as my body is naturally warm so heat makes sleeping unbearable I have to sleep butt naked with all the windows open not good when you have been up since 4:30am and have to get up at 5am a few hours
