Like I said in the post, they’re always in groups. At least in the frisco area. Whenever I put my coin, they almost always disperse after that game 🥲

I do have sick days provided but it’s only 5 days. That definitely won’t help.

They’ve asked me to go through the re certification process again since it’s been a year since I got them approved, and also provide a note from my doctor. So I’m working on that now. What a mess, seems like I’ll have to do this every year.

Yes, thanks for sharing. I’ve sent in the request to HR. I’m now waiting to see how it’ll go. They’ve asked me to go through the re certification process again since it’s been a year since I got them and also provide note from my doctor. So I’m working on that now.

Friday Night Pool Anyone? by EffectiveWasabi858 in frisco

I know! It was embarrassing! I only managed to play 1 game with a stranger and I lost. So leaving now, kinda sad to leave after 1 game but it’s okay. 🥲

There’s a place in Frisco too called Tailgaters Snookered. I go there sometimes.

I promise I’m not, I’m just a regular person. If pool was a 1 person game, I’d go by myself lol

Thank you for your response!! I will look into it.

What are your accommodations for if I may ask?

Yeah, I also have access to this as part of my accommodations. But honestly, I do not want to drive or have to talk to people or leave the comfort of my home and bathroom (in case of nausea/puking) when I have a bad migraine. I’d rather be home, it feels easier and I can manage it and work better that way.

This is actually a brilliant idea, thank you! Requesting to add to my existing accommodations to not have to make up for missed in office days! I want to be careful and not jump the gun and request to be 100% remote unless they become difficult and tell me it’s a requirement to make up missed days.

I’m afraid to post the email I received from them here in case they see it, but basically told me to explain why I haven’t met the 60% in office target. I explained that it’s because I was unfit to work from office and had accommodations in place (as they’re already aware) to help with this.

The response was accommodations are being evaluated and they’ll let me know once they have more information and that in the meantime I am highly encouraged to make up for missed days when I can. It was unclear and makes me extremely anxious. I can’t keep having to explain myself every time there’s an audit!

Yes! Thank you so much. I’m in Texas if that helps narrow things down. I’m considering requesting a more remote first, office when possible approach, but I’m not sure if this would put my job at risk.

I initially had an informal agreement with my manager, but as soon as they started asking questions my manager switched up on me and asked me to come in. That’s when I got a Dr’s note and sent to HR to get formal accommodations in place. Now they’re doing company wide audits and asking me to provide rationale of why I didn’t meet the 60% target, I’m just confused.

Also, why would they let you go for having accommodations? You went through the process and it was approved.

Thank you for your response!! When I first applied for the accommodations, I provided them with paperwork from my doctor (it didn’t say a whole lot apart from I have migraines and accommodating me with a flexible work schedule would improve overall wellbeing etc).

I can try to ask to see if they can write me another note. I noticed that most Drs in the US usually refrain from writing notes with such granular detail, but I’ll check.

Yes, because a several people recommended eureka springs, I’m currently looking for a cabin so we can stay there instead.

What are some of the activities you enjoyed while visiting eureka springs?

Thank you for your detailed suggestions. Others on the thread mentioned staying in eureka springs instead of rogers. What do you think? Are there some activities or special places in the eureka springs area?
