WFH Employee Quits After 4 Hours After Realizing How Dismissive Employer Is Of Their Disability
Starting a new job comes with a huge mix of emotions. Yes, you feel excitement about upcoming challenges and opportunities, but you also have anxiety about performing well, getting to know the team you’re now a part of, and adapting to an unfamiliar environment. It’s a lot to take in.
When Reddit user MudiMom joined an in-home veterinary euthanasia company, however, they felt like they were ready. After all, they’ve had years of experience in the industry. But just hours into their first day, there was already a problem. The manager didn’t like the chair MudiMom was using… working from home, for a remote position.

As long as the job is done correctly and on time, why the floof does it matter if the person is sitting, standing, lying down, doing cartwheels?

In some countries the employer has the same duty of care in terms of work environment to home workers as they with in-office workers. Including providing a suitable chair. And if the worker has a disability they need to cater for that in the type of chair they provide. It's not clear if that's the case here or not, but it was then it doesn't should like the employer was being unreasonable.
