That is fucked up. I'm sorry you had to go through that. I hope you have found a better company to work for.
Thanks for the kind words, friend.
I know this is a comedy community and I'm not trying to be a bring down. But I also think it's important to talk about this kind of thing because, well, it's the kind of thing that corporate america would want to sweep under the rug. We need to normalize talking about mental health because it's yet another public health crisis that doesn't get enough attention.
I'm out of that dumpster fire now, but I'm still looking for my dream job.
Every large company I've worked for (since the mid 90's) never swept this stuff under the rug - quite the opposite, actually. I've seen people with all sorts of issues being accommodated.
Practically every team I've been on had at least one person with some kind of issue. We all knew, and adjusted. Once in a while you get an asshole teammate or manager...those quickly get a reputation and people avoid working with them.
Companies are painfully aware of risk.
Comedy thrives on the truth.
