New manager called my cell and i picked up because i didn't recognize the number, i ended up saying that i was likely going to file for medical leave after speaking to my doctor today.
Then I thought about it for a sec and emailed my direct supervisor, the new manager, the VP who assigns me work, and the CEO (who also directly assigns me work) and BCC'd my personal email to confirm that I'd had a brief call with the manager 20 minutes earlier, that on the call I said I was out of the office due to a medical issue, that I was seeing my doctor later in the day, and that I would likely be putting in for medical leave after that appointment and would be reaching out with more info after speaking to a medical professional.
I also put it in writing that I was going to be doing some work on billing after the appointment because it's a process that only I know how to do and it has to be completed by the 5th of the month, and that I'd be recording the process (something that also came up on the call from the manager).
Translated from work speak that means:
I am documenting that I spoke to a supervisor about medical leave, this email exists because the supervisor called me from his personal number and otherwise the communication would not be documented. This conversation is now documented and time-stamped.
In spite of the fact that I will be filing for medical leave, I am going to be doing work for you today. This indicates that in spite of multiple people knowing that I'm sick, I was contacted by a supervisor and must do work because if a single person is out sick, we can't complete our monthly billing.
Cover your asses out there, kids.
