while i agree that is a bit douchey if serious, you don't have to BE happy, you just have to ACT it. speaking from experience no one really gives a shit if youre depressed, retarded, whatever, you're expected to have some common courtesy if you want to fit in society, it may be bullshit to you but that's just how the world works and if it's so bad then why do you even work there? why dont you get some pills or something? to be honest this storry seemskind of exaggerated at lest. "I said I wish I were happy but no one can be happy with what I have because I'm seriously ill" come on man.
I have chronic fatigue syndrome. I am bedridden when not at work. Getting out of bed takes 3 and a half hours. I can't go out with friends, have no energy. I can't exercise as my doctor says it's bad on my heart, I can't breathe right, I feel weak. I can't stand up for more than 10 minutes straight without passing out. My memory is gone. I can't remember anything past 2 minutes so I have to take a billion notes. My eyes burn like you wouldn't believe. My legs feel like jello with a 200 pound weight on each foot.
Try to be happy with that. I am not exaggerating and I can not smile. I have no energy to do anything. I never smile or laugh at home. I can't yell, my boss knows that because it's bad for my heart.
I tried 3 depression medications, I see 4 doctors, none work because it's a physical condition. I also have migraines 24/7. So I get about 2-3 hours of sleep per day, every day for years. I have not had a single "okay" day in years and not been out of my house other than to work or to a store (which I collapsed in and the ambulance was called, so never went to a store again).
oh, okay sorry. well then I am pretty sure you can get legal about this with the whole EOE thing if he trys anny more stuff. but maybe he was just joking. he did know all this when he hired you right? or at least some people there know who can back you up? and why aren't you on disability?
Boss told me if I don't smile more, I'm out...IIN?
