No, what I'm saying is that the article makes it sound like a boss will fire you for being oblivious about your diagnosis and your illness. Instead, I think that the job needs to be done, and if you aren't able to for whatever the reason is the boss is going to have to find a replacement for you.


you are looking at it from the perspective of the boss.

try looking from the perspective of the worker who want to succeed in a highly regimented world that's artificially constructed that way.

if you don't believe the world is artificially constructed in myriad ways which are counterproductive to vast populations, i recommend the book Invisible Women.

Do unto others, etc.

There's no point in society except being together and helping each other.

Success is also rarely truly individual, even though it's often presented that way.
