Here's some background - names and stuff will be changed to protect the innocent.
Maybe this thread will help someone out there - heres hoping it helps me.
...there is some catching up to do yet so this will just be the start...
I'm hiv+ (about 5 years diagnosed)
I smoke weed, for appetite stimulation, anti nausia, pain relief, for side effects of Anti Retro Viral drugs etc..... and to get high
I'm a Bookeeper for a Transport firm
Since Christmas '08 I've been in a serious relationship with the office hottie (different dept) she hasn't slept in her own bed since New Year and we are going strong - it's never felt so good.
I work with my bosses brother - he's the other Director, & ocasionally I work with my bosses wife.
I'm doing really well on my Anti Retro Viral drugs lately - Undetectable Viral Load and a CD4 count of 454 (thats good shit right there) in January '09, i was over the moon. After i got my last set of blood counts from the Doc, I went and cried in my car because i was so happy.
So i was feeling good - so I started coming out of the closet with my illness. I told a few people i could trust at work that i am hiv+. Real friends only and my new g'f - obviously!
In early February '09 my Boss started calling my performance into question, he is a jerk - we are expanding and there is a massive increase in workload lately. It makes everone busier and it impacts down the line on my accounts department - I am the Accounts Manager.
So I needed some leverage on my boss.... and some protection in law...
Snake brain begins to work...*sound of grinding*
Alone in my office, I told my bosses wife about my hiv... in the context of:
Everyone is sick lately - it's winter - viral stuff, doctor won't give you anti-biotics - it doesn't touch Snake, he's pumped up with Anti Retro Viral drugs... she said 'oh!' She's not the sharpest....I know this
I went to lunch - Wednesday February 4th 2009 - 13:00 ish
Lets see what happened next...
