Thanks Ger175, St George 2013, Kitt and SFN Warrior.

I will speak to the person in the HR dept tomorrow and see what I would need to do. Hopefully things go well; I am often ignored at my job.

I am not sure how that would work since I am hourly. I've pretty much ran out of my vacation and sick time. I've requested an accommodation a couple of times (even from the person in HR) and I was ignored for over 8 months. This resulted in me using a lot of time. They would basically keep me at this one work station well other workers we're able to move around to different work stations. I explained that it causes me pain because the affected hand/wrist was constantly under pressure and stress. Doing for 10-12 hours a day (excluding breaks) was at times unbearable when I was in pain. So I used up my vacation/sick time in order to get a break from this. It doesn't sound fair but as the saying goes "life isn't always fair". It was a simple accommodation that they do with other workers without a request but I was ignored when I asked for it.

I will see how this goes tomorrow. I just don't want to push too much and end up losing my job. Hopefully I don't get too much of a hassle. I'm basically out of time now so I will be screwed if I need to miss anymore time.

Thanks once again everyone for your helpful advice; I am very grateful for such this community.
