I often wonder who is robbing who when I think about SSI/SSDI. How many ADA violations does the normal average everyday deafie experience that doesn't get reported or, when reported, does not get enforced?
Workplace discrimination comes in many different forms. Ever see a new hearing co-worker get promoted when you and other deaf employees never get promoted and have been working for the same company for years? Is it because you are not as "efficient' in the perspective of your employers?
When questioned, do your employers skirt your deafness as if it is NEVER a factor (they already had an attorney advise them on how to handle the subject)? If your disability was NEVER a factor, then of course, the other deaf people who work for the same company should be in higher paid positions, or at least, one or two of them ... correct?
Just things to think about is all ... so who is really robbing who?
How quickly do you suppose an employee who brought this up would be labelled "persona non grata" ?
At my old workplace, if you report or make complaint about ADA violation so manager will retaliate you, so they happened to me and I tried to avoid from reporting.
I'm not impressed about federal law.


What does that have to do with SSI? By law, deaf people with no/low income have rights to receive SSI. Why are you talking about the law that was made to be broken? Do you mean they are robbers? Please clarify.
, please.
