I beat every co-worker and had top sales at the order desk...beat them by 250,000 a year or better. Yet, a couple of asshats went to my boss and whined that my attendance was horrible, co workers, Per the store manager told him I planned on getting ill. So here I sit, another statistic but please everyone, remember when you see that guy begging for money, or you meet someone on disability, dont judge them, they may very well have tried to work, but no one gives a crap about mental illness...to them its malingering. I worked hard, tried to ignore the venom. But on my Psychologists advise I went on Long Term Disablility to try and get control of my symptoms.
