During a rush tonight, a new co-worker is having a hard time standing up/about to faint. I help walk him to place to sit down. I asked if he is ok, he says he is diabetic, & low on sugar. I go to bar & ask for glass of orange juice. It’s the first time he told anyone (even my boss) that he is diabetic. The kitchen staff were not mad, we all asked why he did not tell he boss about his medical condition before he started.

Probably the same reason I don’t tell people I’m hypoglycemic or suffer from PTSD. Nobody needs that on ‘em and I don’t want people to feel sorry for me

Anyone who has so much as worried for a second about their boss’s reaction before calling in sick knows exactly why he didn’t say anything. They can’t fire you for it, but what if it’s why they start looking for a reason? Maybe your boss is a fine and rational and compassionate person! Thankfully, mine mostly are. But what if he or she wasn’t?

He was probably worried he wouldn’t get hired if he told them going in. I wouldn’t tell anyone about my depression or ADD in an interview. Legally they can’t not hire me but that doesn’t mean they can’t come up with a different reason to not hire me for it.
