    Probation periods on jobs

    I think jobs need to revisit probation periods for jobs. Not being able to take off until 3 months or a year is a bit extreme. Perhaps giving folks the flexibility will change the climate of a job. Probation periods can feel like a punishment at some jobs. I get it you want stability so do I. There has to be a better way to do things.

    You’ve been thinking about something — is it time to leave your job? This is a question that only you can answer, but if the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s the fact that we don’t have to settle for a job that isn’t meeting our needs. That shouldn’t change when you have a chronic [...]

    Working With Chronic Illness: Searching for a Job

    As someone with a chronic illness, I know how challenging it can be to navigate a job or career — especially when you don’t fall into the “norm” of other employees’ abilities or what non-disabled people can sustain long term. It may take a lot of consideration, flexibility, and time to set yourself up for [...]

    You Don’t Need to Disclose Your Illness to Be Supported at Work

    For the past year and a half since I started graduate school, I’ve debated disclosing my chronic illnesses to my advisor. When I interviewed, I explained that I’d had a chronic illness in the past (since we discussed my leave of absence from college), but I didn’t say anything about my current conditions. I planned [...]

    Why We Must Fight for Disability Rights and Inclusion in STEM

    One thing that I noticed when I started pursuing further education and a career in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) was that I was part of a minority group. I was surrounded by mostly male individuals, though my cohort mates were more diverse in gender (most of the male individuals were older students and [...]

    Sick leave??

    This is just a PSA to point out how disappointed I am in jobs in America. I work at a hospital and they are having us come to work fully Covid Positive. It’s almost like self care doesn’t even exist anymore! #Jobs #Dissapointed #america
