How do you deal with discrimination?!
Question: I just got fired from my job. I have worked there less then six months.
Thursday they phone me. They say they really like my work and want to offer me fulltime. Friday I had a seizure, I had taken 1 cold pill and it reacted to my psyche meds.
My wife told 911 I had bipolar disorder and thought I might be reacting to medication. Because I have bipolar disorder(I assume), the police tried to order everyone out of my house before they would let paramedics in. They wanted to "secure" the area. My boss lives down the block from me, my sister-inlaw said they police radioed that they suspected I had overdosed(not the case). I could have driven if I was not flopping like a fish and would not have anything in my blood to even warrant a 24 hour driving suspension. I live in a small town.I got a call this morning from my boss telling me they no longer want me. When I asked for an explanation he said he did not have one and told me he would mail my check and not to come by.
what would you do?

This scenario sound familiar to me. I was fired for having an 'idiopathic seizure disorder'.
There are laws and governmental organization that will help you. You should be covered by the 1975 Rehabilitation Act, and you can file with organizations.
Fair Employment Practice Commission
Department of Labor
You need tenacity, determination, patience and a will to prevail. A small town will be quite intimidated by governmental agencies investigating practices there. FILE NOW as there is a time limit. Everything is free for you.
My complaint with a major airline resulted in my receiving back pay, benefits restored and no harassment. You need to keep on it. When I filed my complaint, I knew that they were in violation of law so I enjoyed the time off. Do the same but ACT and do not sit back and take it.
WOW.if that's a true story you definately need to see a lawyer. That's BS !
I recently sued a past employer for 'something'..what's wrong with these people. My advise if this is true and you do get a lawyer, make sure it's a good one. Their lawyer will try to make you look like a piece of sh*t.
