[QUOTE="dysert, post: 69801155, member: 303290"] I would say it was not impacting my job performance, but they would likely have said it was. As a software developer, job performance is assessed quite subjectively anyway. I was not offered any help. And if that stunt wasn't enough, the only way they knew of my illness is because the company doctor (it was a big company) likely told management of my condition -- a clear violation of HIPAA. And, this was after I came back from FMLA leave, probably another violation! Personally, I think they were scared of me. They didn't want some maniac with a gun coming in and shooting up the place, so they wanted me gone. I know I could have gone to court over this, but everything would have been so hard to prove. At the time I didn't have the money, time, or energy to go through it. If it happens again, though, I won't hesitate. [/QUOTE]
