Wow, @CelticCrafter I am sorry (and actually shocked) that you don't believe what is happening to my friend. It is 100% true and is an ongoing stressor in my friend's life.

As for getting "sucked in", that was in response to some that thought I should not get involved and me acknowledging others that continue to share their comments, views, advice and suggestions with me.

The fact that my friend's boss is weilding his power over him is very frustrating for me - especially because it concerns his health! My friend does not have many other employment options at this point in his life.

It is sad to me that you don't believe this. But, I guess that proves how truly weird and ridiculous his boss' actions are.

Besides all this, why in the world would I make up something like this?

If it is his health that is illegal. He needs an attorney.

@JohnnyWasnt A good salesperson can always get a job. Please let us know what happens.

I don't think legally this "boss" has the right to give anyone medical advice. I would just tell him I am under my Doctor's care and have the Doctor write a note stating that and that he will decide what medication he needs.

i've had a couple of real jerks for bosses but this story makes no sense AT ALL. A 1099 contractor and he just happily hands over his credit card ROFLOL

@Mindy D I do understand. My comments/suggestions were just what I thought could/might work to try to diffuse the situation and make is stop - I'm sure what the friend is going through with the mystery seizure disorder is stressful enough, so I thought trying it the way I suggested might smooth it over so the friend could continue to work in peace and the boss could feel respected and 'heard'. (and therefore stop pushing his advice) I never thought what the friend is being put through is ok or appropriate, or that he should follow the boss's advice or ultimatum, but just to try to make things better with some finesse.

I think read somewhere in this thread that the "dr." said to give it a try - can't hurt!? I have to look at all the posts to make sure that's truely what the doc. said. If that's the case, it kind of moots my advice. Also, adds to the weirdness of this whole story!
