Currently on short term disability leave for a RSI in my hands.
Doctor is potentially recommending me to come back to work (FDD) and request a 20 hr/week restriction working arrangement.
Is there any way this realistically works out? My impression is no given the nature of the work and the lean staffing, but curious to know if anyone has ever been in the same situation

Your health comes first. If you were on my team I’d work around it. What else can I do? Ask you to ignore your doctor’s orders to help our PE clients get richer?
