I have to go back to work today, and so far I've seen a distinct lack of communication in the Walmart I work at, so I'm expecting to walk in and be insta fired, tbh. I'm trying to get out of that store anyways, I have two interviews next week, both for jobs willing to pay me two dollars more than I make at Walmart (actually a little less, I make 11.22 an hour at Walmart and I'll make 13 and hour at the lodge or at festival. I hope I get an offer at festival tbh because I'd rather work there).
But anyways; I applied for my leave around the 25th of May, so it's been two months. It got denied on June 28th by Sedgwick, and I was supposed to return to work on the 1st had it been approved. I assumed I'd been fired because I had probably 15+ absences by then due to my headaches. On July 3rd I got a call from Julie (I love Julie, Kim can eat my dick) saying that they had been under the impression I was supposed to return to work on the first. I explained my leave had been denied and that I'd assumed I'd been fired, then she says that the store manager (fuck him) had approved it after it came back from Sedgwick. No one fucking told me this so how was I supposed to know? So I called Scott on the fifth and explained that best-case-scenario I'd be able to come back on the twentieth. Well it's not the best case scenario, my headaches have been coming back, just less severe, but I need to go to work, I need money and I've cost my parents almost $500 in doctors visits and blood tests just for my doctor to say she didn't know what was going on. Also I'm not a fan of the broke life.
So yeah I'm going back to work today in about an hour and I'm honestly gonna tell anyone who says anything to fuck off. Patient privacy laws in Wisconsin are a thing so I don't need to say shit about what's been going on.
