It's heartbreaking how so many disabled people got better jobs during the pandemic because they didn't have to disclose or ask for accommodations w/ WFH ... and now that Corporate has decided it's back to the office, we're somehow lacking. But no, they would never discriminate.

I also know that many people with disabilities were right fucked by the pandemic, but I think there is a subsection with this experience and it makes it so transparent how fake every EDI committee and initiative is. The only time they don't discriminate is when they don't know.

@annethegnome I recently left my $49k/yr management position after 7 years (in position, 12 at the company) because the company fired my entire team of analysts who refused to go back to site almost 2 years ago. It’s fucking awful.

@annethegnome But now there’s a solid legal argument of WFH being a reasonable accommodation.

@annethegnome @redfresds Actually I left working in health care after 14 years April 2020 as I didn’t feel safe and couldn’t cope with all the changes. I now work for a disability charity that actually cares about its staff and actively seeks our reasonable ajustements for me.

@annethegnome Those that dislike WFH are bad at their jobs.

@annethegnome The only reason my job wants me back is to justify their spending on facility upgrades. That's it. I've told them how it negatively affects me and they don't care.

@annethegnome I tried to change compagnies to get full-WFH again, the only one who would hire me proposed me a salary lower than the one I already have. And I'm already very much underpaid considering my degree, experiences and technical skills.

@annethegnome That is 100% me. I have severe anxiety and social phobia and my jobs have gotten so much better and better-paying since I could WFH. Now I'm trying to retain my dream job, but it has to be WFH, so wish me luck.
