Disclosure- Part One/Workplace by Aundaray Guess

My first journey begins with how disclosure affected my job. It began with me sitting across from supervisor who wanted some answers as to why I seemed to called in sick or every several months I put in half a day as I had to leave the office for one reason or the other. It was tricky as I was running out of excuses of telling my boss why I was late for work. How many times could I use the ‘I didn’t hear the alarm clock excuse’ or that the half days I put in was for a family emergency when it would have been so much easier to tell her that in actuality I had an appointment with my HIV doctor.
