Today, I went to an interview for a job I really wanted and am qualified for. I've been looking for months. This job was perfect; close to home and great pay. Needless to say I spent quite a while preparing. Everything was going great until I had to sneeze, which forced out a loud, long fart. FML
Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

Today, I went to my first ever job interview, in a totally stressed out state. The employer's first question was: "What's your name?" I forgot. FML
Today, I went to a big job interview. As I walked in, I tripped and fell flat on my face. Other highlights include my voice cracking multiple times, sweating profusely and getting uncontrollable nervous giggling. The interviewer eventually stared at me in disbelief and asked if I was high. FML

WTF? I dont know what you just said. all I can figure out is that you can't spell, been out of work for 14 months and your partner has too. hope your not a teacher, but would def explain why your not working. may be time for a new career.

say you have a disability where u faint often and if they don't hire you, sew them because they arnt following the law
Zomg_Okay 26
We don't know what the job is... if its a truck driver or pilot or something along those lines... Well, I imagine its hard to "sew" someone if they are trying to prevent someone who faints a lot from being in control of a vehicle... Suing - not always the answer.

if a person in the united states has a disability and does not get equal rights and gets turned down jobs just because they have that disability, it is illegal(according to the America disability act). a woman at starbucks is suing Starbucks cuz she is a dwarf. she asked for a stool to stand on and in return for the request, she was fired.

yes 48 your right to a certain degree. but keep in mind that the op will have to prove that the reason they didn't get the job was because of the disability. and no employer will admit to that. the burden of proof is always on the filer.

They must also prove that they could safely do the job with their disability. US commercial driver physicals will soon require mandatory sleep apnea testing as it can lead to narcolepsy as well as unsafely tired drivers.

your right 52 if an employer can't reasonably accommodate for that persons safety they can decline employment. I have a friend on social security disability because she has seizures, migraines, and blackouts. she can't drive either. ssd can be very difficult to obtain, but she got hers real easy.

by chance, would you be related to the op that passed out takeing a crap?
