Tony, Jay & others:
I am currently sueing an Ivy-League university where I used to work for violation of ADA workplace statutes.
I have an awesome lawyer, and that helps a lot. In the end, deciding to sue rather than lay down and die was less embarassing than empowering. I mean, who wants to be the poster girl for bipolar? But the university was able to cut off my livelihood and ruin a good career, one that I enjoyed and was good at. It was a mortifying experience being fired and then unemployed... But having these people attempt to explain their actions in front of a jury will be sweet.If anyone wants to email me about my experiences off-list, for info or support, you can reach me at:
margduras at ivillage dot com
(get it?) (Note: it's best to spell it out like this, so your email is un-searchable on google or other search engines...)
Hang in there, Tony...
best,
Wendy
