Am I right for wanting to reject this job offer?

[Anonymous]

I had an interview a couple days ago at goodwill as a material handler, were ill be lifting large items often. I'll also be driving to work. They offered me the job, and im just waiting for the results of my drug test. Thing is, I went on a new anxiety medication recently, and im feeling dizzy/lightheaded. Just not myself. I called my doctor and she said cut my dose in half, and see if that helps, but that could take days, and goodwill could call my today to come work. Wst would I tell them then? I dont want to hurt/kill someone on my way to, and from work, or at work. I was thinking of just calling, and telling them I can't eccept the job offer. Should I?

Two possibilities:

1. Call them, explain your situation, ask if it would be okay with them if you could start a couple of days later. As long as you explain your reason for the request - and it IS a very good reason - they can hopefully be okay with that, and you won't have to quit a job over this.

2. If I understand you correctly, I get the impression that the driving is the main dangerous issue here. Could that be solved somehow, either by using public transportation until your medication is in order or getting a friend or family member to drive you? Then, at work, again explain your situation, and do your work as best you can but TAKE BREAKS when you get dizzy and think it could go bad.

Whatever happens, good luck.
