Pointed out the training wasn't ADA compliant at my new job. Got this text the same day (the job listing is still up)

1. This was a cleaning position at a medical building, I'm leaving it intentionally vague as not to doxx myself.

2. I have dyslexia, but my disability would not have interfered with my work, I can read fine, it just takes me a very long time.

3. This was my first day

I asked for a TTS application for the reading portion of the training, which was extremely long and I knew I wasn't going to finish it in the allotted time. They said that wasn't built into their system so they couldn't do anything. ← That's not ADA compliant. I asked if I could add an OCR + TTS browser extension, they said it was fine.

About 40 minutes after I clock out, they texted me I was fired because they're apparently reducing headcount.. by firing one person... and leaving their "urgently hiring" Indeed listing up. Right.

Edit:

I'm not confident in my ability to sue because I don't have my accommodation request in writing. This was a verbal exchange, I was more so asking where the TTS option was because most job training has it somewhere.

When I was told they did not have TTS, I mentioned that's not ADA compliant. I then asked for either more time, a loaner computer (something I was already going to be getting after training), or permission to add a 3rd party OCR & TTS program.

They said that the third option was fine, so I did it, and listened to the training via third party app for the rest of the shift. I thought nothing of it. Lo and behold I was fired extremely coincidentally afterwards.

Edit 2:

This post is getting too many notifications of people saying the same things repeatedly so I've muted it 😭 If you're a legal professional of some sort and you have specific resources or concerns please message me or I probably won't see it.

I got terminated by a chiropractor cause I pointed out he’s committing insurance fraud and I won’t help. He had just spent money sending me to school for a year…where I was taught about insurance fraud… afaik, he’s still practicing. Guess he found a stooge to let him do it.

Too bad you weren’t a ghost telling him instead, chiropractors would be nothing without them.

The guy who created chiropractic care said he was told by a ghost how to do it lol

I have worked in 2 chiropractic clinics and both had rather "loose" billing practices.

One I left because of exactly how they were trying to bill me out. (illegally)

[u/evenstar40 → u/cymonium]

Fuck chiropractors. I had one randomly bill me for services a year after I saw them. For an appointment that never happened. Pretty sure they were trying to game my insurance.
