after being unemployed for 3 years i got a job whoppeee in may this year and as im new to diabetes( feb 15 ) type 2 i was worried about telling my new employer about my diabetes i spoke to my diabetes nurse who told me you don't have to tell them anything just prove to them you can do a full time job then if you want tell them later . ok sounds fine as i have my diabetes under control no problems so i cant see a problem ,so i did my job until the 3rd week when there was a management meeting , i was given my job for the next week then i said you do remember i need 1/2 a day off monday( this was for a diabetic check up)and booked weeks before i took the job ,oh replied my line manager she was no at all pleased , i said i have to go some where but be ok tuesday no i asked you where are you going said my manager now as i was not willing to say in front of a room of people about my condition !!!!! i was told well if that's your attitude don't bother coming back !!!!!!!!!! now as im unemployed again my concern is do i say or not say about my condition next time
