Been at my job about six months after two years looking for employment and everyday is a struggle being a kitchen assistant in a home care as I’m deaf .
It badly run and I keep it wrong and got told off a few times but I always needed to be able to rely on someone to tell me what they are saying which do slow things down , yestaday the chef/boss called us and said we were terrible out there and need to focus and listen ! Now I’m a very quiet person and I certainly stuck up for my self yestaday which surprised me as it been building up ! So close to walking out but I don’t want to look bad ! All this time I’ve been looking for another job and it so hard find part time job and disablity job recruitment agency shaw trust for example can’t help unless you’re unemployed ? !!dreading going in today , I just want to leave !!

Hi @clairewales,
I'm sorry to hear about this. Have you spoken to your manager about your disability and asked for reasonable adjustments? We also have lots of employment advice and support on our website which you might find helpful.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions then please do get in touch!0 -
Hello @clairewales
This sounds like a very distressing thing to have to go through on a daily basis, but I do think that @LiamO_Dell is absolutely right, you do need to speak with your manager about this situation.
He needs to know about your impairment and how it affects you in the workplace, explain to him that it is causing you distress. He may not have any idea that you are feeling this way, if you are considering leaving your job, you have nothing to lose by having a chat with him and hopefully he may think twice about the way he interacts with his staff. As your employer, it is up to him to make the adjustments you need to be able to do your job effectively.
Best of luck!
