I have anxiety and depression. It is listed as a medical disability. Just wondering if I identify as an employee with a disability, would it reduce my chances of being laid off?

And likewise if I apply to a new job, will they be more likely to select me all else equal?

No lol that’s not how itworks

It should have no bearing on hiring or firing. Hiring in theory is equal opportunity.

My firm has a goal of requirement to meet x% of disability workers

I’m not bad with money but definitely lots of room to improve overall, due to several personal factors I don’t want to list in full here (numerous unanticipated medical bills, bad boyfriends, etc.) Hence why I only have $3k in savings right now. My first mini goal is to have $5k saved by the end of December. I need motivation and words of encouragement. If I pay off my medical bills, I won’t make my goal. I have to start putting saving money first. Getting depressed about my situation.

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.
