“As a disabled person, I feel like I constantly just have to “suck it up” and deal with my
chronic pain which is always exacerbated by long tech days…I take care of myself (which being scared of having to call out without having someone who knows my track definitely makes me do)…the long days make having a flare up more likely and almost impossible to recover from if I’m not able to get a full nights sleep. I’m only 22 and I imagine this all will only get worse as I age.”
