Imagine the thrill of getting hired at a new company only to be shamed on the very first day for having to recline a certain way because of health issues. This Redditor had a known disability that required them to recline on the job, but given their role and several years of experience in the field, it really should not have been an issue. Her seating position had absolutely no effect on the job she was performing, but of course, in the eyes of her traditionally-minded boss, her appearance came off as slacking.
You would think that after explaining her condition and her need to sit this way, her boss would have backed off, but that would be too easy for your boss to admit they were off-base. So as difficult as this decision was, OP decided that there was no way she could be comfortable working in this toxic environment. However, thankfully, she wouldn't go down without a fight and decided to make her experience known via email. This email exchange is included in the screenshots below. Once again, you would think that an HR representative reading this would sincerely apologize for what transpired; instead, she just curtly accepted OP's resignation. The audacity of these people! Hopefully, OP can take some satisfaction in knowing she dodged a bullet.
