Neurofibromatosis and Working

0 Recommendations

I had went in earlier this year to apply for a job with Subway in Plainwell Michigan, only to be told by the manager he could hire me but I would have to work in back he had to be considerate of his customers, now I am facially disfigured I have been told i could have sued him for discrimination but I felt it was pointless I had no support in going through with it, and was even told " I can understand his point and I hope you can to."

NO ! ! ! I can not understand his point. I am so sick for people saying such hurtfull things like that. I have a tumor on my wrist and was always qestioned about it. I had many people get nasty about it to. I am so sorry that you had to go thro that. Many of us have been treated that way at one time or another. It is unfair and hurtfull. Again I am so sorry for that. I probly would not have sued either only because I wouldnt want to face the fight. I would have wanted to but would never have gone all the way.

Stay Stong

its people like that manager that make me not want to leave the house, I get people staring at me all the time and kids pointing and staring. It gets annoying I had one girl when I was in line to get my meds who started so i turned around and I kid you not she moved to see me each time i turned she followed, Id done a complete circle by time it was done. I walked out and had my husband get my meds.

People make me so mad sometimes. I recently started getting nodules on my face and i do get questioned about it sometimes but nobody has said anything like that to me. It would be hard for he to bite my tongue and not say something mean and nasty back.
