Will something bad happen?

Question

I have been taking a lot of time off of work lately (the doctor's think I might have tonsilitis), but I am always online and working from home. I am afraid that they might get mad and let me go. I always get things done when I am at home, but I am still afraid that something bad might happen. They are pretty lenient here, but what do you think?

Answer 1

If you have a letter from your MD regarding your illness, there shouldn't be a problem, especially if your job performance has been good. Even if you need a tonsillectomy, it will eventually get better and you will be back to work full time.

You say they are "lenient"; OK, then talk to your HR person and explain the situation.
