Post: Discrimination?

Posted by Daniel on 1/09/08
Alright, basically here's what is going on. I have a chemical imbalance, in which a RN friend of mine, has already confirmed the issue. Its due to diabetes.. i have not provided any documentation to my workplace regarding such, mainly due to costs, i do not have the money to afford to go to a doctor to get the proof, the pay i make at this job really barely covers the bills i currently have, however... its obvious its nothing of a hygienic nature, i keep myself clean, keep my clothes clean, and on most occasions everything is fine, it really only happens when i sweat alot, due to the imbalance, the sweat is what causes the odor.. well anyways.. My work acknowledges the improvement, however continue to refuse in any assistance, in making my working environment a more relaxed one. I have to constantly be paranoid, and worried if my presence is bothering anyone, and its quite stressful. I have asked them on several occasions If they could put me in an area, where i could continue to do my work without interuption, and also be able to not 'disrupt' anyone else's work.. they refuse to do such, and I do understand that by law they are not obligated to, but if they fire me for this, then does it become a legal issue, harassment on their behalf, because they refused to make accomodations, even after i showed several months of improvement? I do live in texas, which.. sadly makes it incredibly hard to determine, since i am aware that it is a right to work state.
