The RTWAP saga continues

Last Wednesday I attended the OSEB Phase II workshop. I was supposed to bring my Return To Work Action Plan (RTWAP) with me but I didn't have it yet and the earliest appointment I could get with an assessment counselor who could write one for me was for the day after, Thursday.

I went to see the assessment counselor on Thursday. She opened a file for me and collected some general information about me but we didn't have enough time during my short appointment with her to complete the plan. "Come back tomorrow," she told me.

So I went back on Friday and met with her again and she completed the plan. It was a rushed job because she was booked up for the day and didn't have a lot of time to spend on it and I had told her that I needed it yesterday. It was a rushed job but at least I got it and it had the all important recommendation that I apply to the OSEB program. Mission RTWAP was successful I texted to my buddy.

Several hours later I was home and getting ready to forward it to my business advisor in the OSEB program, when the counselor called me and asked me to hold the report and not send it out. She found something in my file that she wasn't sure about. It was close to the end of the business day now so I agreed to hold off and decided I would go back to the office to resolve the issue on Monday (today).

I went to see her again today and this time she told me to hold off submitting it until after January 3, and that she wanted to make some changes to it, since the original version had been rushed.

Now I was feeling stressed, because January 3 would be even later past the deadline I had for submission. So I went to see the business advisor in person and explained my situation to him. He told me to bring the plan with me when I have my Phase II interview, which is January 8. At least I have some relief on that front now.
