I got PIP'ed and actually fixed the problem I had and resolved the PIP. The problem was that I would mis-ship items sometimes in a warehouse. I figured out that I couldn't reliably read some of the product labels, so I went to go get an eye exam. Apparently I had 20/100 vision in one eye due to astigmatism. Getting glasses meant that I quit fucking up, so they dropped the PIP and moved me into another part of the company.

I guess I'm the poster child for having vision insurance as a company benefit.

Wow, I didn't know pickers and stowers got PIPs. Obviously you did a smart thing in that you went and got a medical diagnosis. The company would be facing a medical disability lawsuit if they followed through with the PIP/firing.

A lawyer I spoke with suggested employees regularly visit their doctor about work related stress so that when they inevitably get PIP'ed they can claim medical leave and work related illness. Some places its a war zone and that's what workers have to do.

I was a warehouse clerk which meant I was responsible for picking stowing, receiving, shipping and organizing the warehouse.

Was it management's decision to move you or yours? If it was theirs', it seems like management didn't have confidence you could improve once the problem was found and fixed. Kinda like changing two things at a time when troubleshooting. How did you feel about that?

It was mine. An opening appeared in the service department and I applied for it.
