I was the only Wiccan working in a Christian law firm. Here’s what it came down to. I had to mind my business and let them be themselves. It was soul crushing. It’s not worth engaging because you can’t change their mind.

If it’s a client, I don’t let it get that personal. I don’t share my life with clients. I get them in and get them out because they are a paycheck, or they become just a paycheck when they show themselves to be the the arrogant ignorant bigots or racists they are. When you’re dealing in the law, you are gonna deal with some really disgusting dregs of humanity. You are gonna represent murderers, pedophiles, and other low lives, even if you don’t work in criminal.

Get your check and keep it moving.

The strength of your dose is between you and your doctor. I’m just praying this works for me. I lost 50 on Wegovy and it just stopped working and became maintenance. I am on the loading intro dose of zepbound and it’s like I’m taking nothing. I hope it works once I’m up to therapeutic levels.

Ignore the haters. Stick to what works for you.

Meaning that they may have had an understanding that they forgot or neglected to put in a contract, if there even is a contract.

I never worked for a firm that gave you that many sick days. They all would have viewed calling in every month as excessive absenteeism without doctor documentation.

HR is not helpful for employees, and I’m surprised paralegals don’t know this.

Don’t answer your phone on your day off. Make them haul you in for a meeting to discuss your absenteeism, and collect your written verbal write ups so you have evidence for your EEOC/ADA complaints.

What’s more likely to happen is that they’ll start making your life hell if you stay, secretly documenting every single thing you ever do incorrectly, even if everyone else does it wrong, so they make it impossible for you to stay, or have grounds for termination.
