Reduced hours
Hi,
My daughter works at a nursing home in TN, as the Director of Social Services. According to her, administrators can really be a pain! She did work at a different nursing home in TN, but she and 3 others were laid off. Since then, that place has had many, many problems, and is now being investigated by its Ombudsman. (the person to call if all else fails).
Your administrator does not have to know the reasons your doctor gave you a slip, requesting less working hours. He/she is just being difficult!
I am sorry you are working in an environment where this is happening. My daughter found this new job after being laid off from the bad one, and is much, much happier in her new settings... with much better administrators.
My guess is that if you want reduced hours, you are going to have to play the "game" of the administrator, and tell him/her why. But, of course, that is up to you. I don't think it is "legal harassment" in this situation. Getting time off, or reduced hours working time, is strictly up to your boss. I do wish you the best, and good luck.
