Re: The 1-hour until quitting time everything's gotta be done now rush

[Anonymous]

The ADHD issue is that it comes at the end of a 9-hour day and I have completely lost the abilities to concentrate, focus or prioritize. It is the time of even more mistakes and more frustration and telling the person I need more time (even though I’m not on salary and not getting overtime) would mean that I’d be extending my day even farther for them and doing it for free.

I need to get my supervisor involved so we can work out a solution. I may have to reveal my disability in order to get the accommodation.

I think the problem is multiplied because (as Larynxa pointed out) I have a hard time saying no. I don’t want to be the one responsible for missing the deadline. And there’s an awful lot of fear attached as I don’t want to tic anyone of (especially someone higher up) and risk losing ANOTHER job. Another reason why I may need to reveal my disability so I can get some protection and not be fired because I can’t do something because of my disability.
