Using your own experience as if it applies to this situation is a good one Yeah that's one possible weird takeaway I have another example of someone who is sheltered. Someone who is so laughably dead set on being correct that he assumes the TCs workplace doesnt have a similar policy even though what the boss stated reflects this. And then on top of that, lectures an online poster that they cant use the language that they're using because if they were TCs boss they would be in hot water Your argument is shit but if you want I can continue showing you how it is shit --- Roll Tide & Go Irish <cite>MacadamianNut3 posted [p:928207309] in Is this di...

Well just going by what I know for employer discrimination training and not studying various laws, I don't think he can ask that specific question. But everything else you said he asked isn't illegal, and you would have a hard time proving he cut hours because of your disability while being aware of it.

That said, unless you have both some proof things happened the way you remember them or are reasonable to assume did, and some indication they were malicious in intent, trying to go through legal channels will at best probably get you some mediation to stop the questions.

There are deadlines for filing, too (usually either 180 or 300 days, depending on what state you live in). Is that American or Canadian? Oh, are you Canadian? I don't know about Canada.
