[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much can she possibly be making? Isn’t it like $800/mo?[/quote] My guess is her salary is just a bonus, it’s all the benefits (health insurance is a big one) that come along with a Fed job. This woman may have had long COVID but her current activity level seems to indicate she has recovered enough to be able to work from a desk.[/quote] What’s your experience in these kinds of judgements? You don’t know her situation. She may play tennis for 3 hours a week, but may also need 12 hours a week of other therapies that no employer will accommodate for. She may not be able to sit for prolonged periods of time due to pain or thrombosis risk. She may have cognitive issues. She may need extra rest but “regular office hours” plus any other therapies don’t accommodate for. You see these people at their best, but I suspect their worst would leave you without words. Can we stop with judging people against an impossible schedule for work? Maybe she *can* work a desk job but cannot her accommodations for that. Maybe she can’t. You don’t know, so stop with the side eyes. You don’t actually know what her best life looks like. I’m assuming for many people, they best life doesn’t look like a limited life with Long Covid.[/quote]
