[blindlaw] Everyone Needs $3500

[Timothy Blanchett]

a question for anyone that can help.  I went in to dial America to
interview for a job as a sales rep in a call center after applying.  I
walked in and a lady fredrica greated me at the door stating I have a
dog and she is scared of dogs and for someone else to help me.  So
next a anita walked up and took me in to her office for the interview.
However she did not do an interview she asked me why I did not put on
my application that I was blind.  I stated it did not ask me if I was
blind.  She then asked me if I knew I was applying for a call center
job.  I replied yes I have 12 years experience in a call center
setting and was fully aware of the job I had applied for.  She then
took about 30 minutes providing every reason she did not think a
accomidation could be made and I explained as to how it could be done.
She never did an interview.  I then stood up and thanked her for her
time and walked out.  I called her manager Curtis the next day and
explained everything to him.  He said he would need to talk to corp hr
about everything and get back to me as to if a reasonable accomidation
could be made.  2 weeks later he called me and stated they had another
rep in the past that was a jaws user and it had been done before in
the past and that they would need to get jaws set up on their system
and after that is done they would call me in for an interview at that
point.  I asked him how long that would take and he replied it may
take 6 months however he could not give me a time frame.  I feel I was
discriminated against and want to file a law suit any help on how to
do so?  Timothy Blanchett  423-441-0982
