Thank you everybody for your responses. Kolleen, I think he meant that they don't accept letters from Naturopathic doctors. It has to be an MD. Churchgal, thank you very much for the info. I do get allergic reactions easily on my skin. I am sensitive to a few things. No serious reactions though, the only one was when I touched the chemical on the table a few weeks. I got a bad reaction then. Feels like my head is spinning. too much is going on. I will talk to my ND tomorrow. he can tell me what would be a good thing to come up with for the medical exemption. Hope he knows doctors to go to. I am worried how my body will react to that shot. Wouldn't be surprised if I went into shock. I am used to natural stuff. whenever I have any problems, I mostly use my essential oils. If I drink soda or eat something too sweet, I feel like it is poison. My chest feels weird and I can't handle the sugar content. I have been wondering what the real motive was for the director to call me and talk to me that way. he said I am a good employee and always the first to be willing to help when something comes up.............. but still, who is indispensable? I wondered if he was trying to trick me: can't you get a medical exemption? and maybe he thought I would say that I know a doctor who would write me one if I asked him/her. then he would know that I can just get people to write me stuff that is not true...............just maybe like my religious exemption request was not true.............. I don't know. Am I being silly thinking like that? Your employer has the "authority" to accept your religious excemption request, which I'm sure the director would be either involved or privy to the decision making on that matter. The fact he said no ned totalk about the special injection means the conversation was actualy about the special injection. I think maybe they were fishing for info to see how resolute you are about your stance, and realising they maybe pushing a specialist employee to far? Thank you very much Loz. I really appreciate your input. I needed to figure out what might be going on. the minute I picked up the phone and was talking to him, the message: "he is not your friend" was in my mind. He is the director of our department only. Sorry I did not mention that. I don't know how much authority he has to accept my exemption.
