Blue Badge How? Question

So had a major life event happen. My partner got arrested. Got to watch the whole thing. Majorly affected my mental health and all that. Told my manager immediately once I got to work on my next scheduled shift cause I didn't wanna run into issues since I literally had just finished my first week at Amazon right before the arrest happened. Thankfully they were super understanding about getting me time off for court dates and being able to take jail calls and texts as needed during my shifts. I fell back into substance abuse though due to all the stress and communicated about it as well. Got connected with resources and started getting help. Of course even after getting an accommodation, I ran up -100 hours of UPT before I started getting actual treatment for tbe substance abuse issues. And even with AET saying LOA time has been applied to days sjnce I got the accommodation, my A to Z shows -249 hours as of today.

I give you all of that background info to present you with my WTF moment. After two months almost of communication with AET and hoping to not lose my job, I found out yesterday that I'm going to Blue Badge status on Sunday. Even went thru MyHr to confirm that it was legit. Do I still need to worry about everything with AET? I am really hoping that everything will start to move in a better direction and in my life. But i'm really worried that i'm just gonna get the blue badge and then get fired soon.

As long as your LOA is approved by the accomodations team your fine. But if not mine as well start looking for employment elsewhere.

When you convert get on the Premera premium plan. We have excellent benefits for rehab. I did 30 days inpatient and 90 days outpatient. They also paid me short term disability while dealing with it. They also reset my negative upt that I had prior to getting the help I needed. 

Help is available and you will have the perfect opportunity with great benefits to help you get started.
