Hello all. I just started a new job last week (after having been unemployed for seven months). On the application I stated 'NO' to disability because, per the law reading that was sent to me, I did not have to disclose as I do not need "reasonable accommodation". My hearing aids aren't perfect and I occasionally need someone to repeat themselves.
The new boss called me out of the blue this weekend and wanted to know when I could get my hearing "fixed". What "game plan" did I have in place for training with our mentors. (It's a six week on site training then four years from home)
I explained to her that I could hear her over the phone just fine but she stated that if the client did not like me due to my hearing impairment then she would have to let me go.
What options do I have? If any?
