So, I have a feeling that my my medical information is out for the vultures to enjoy.

People don't understand that the reach of their gossip can lead to possible suspension, termination or a law suit. Smh.

Union rep here.

Uh, yes. No question. This varies by jurisdiction but I'm unaware of any which would permit this.

@CountScrofula Nmh. This os so bad.

@Umile Do you work in a medical setting and people are talking about patients? Or is this about a coworker or what's happening? Just morbidly curious.

@CountScrofula I'd rather not disclose the details. People might just fired for this.

@Umile Totally get it. Good luck!
