She has put in 4 applications last night. We are hoping and praying for
positive results. I agree that Amanda may have made some mistakes, but I think
more so they are unable to stand good on the fact that they would sign off on
her internship. So, when they have an opportunity to dismiss her they take the
opportunity. One of the grounds for Amanda accepting the position was that they
would sign off on her internship. The employer said they have never done this,
but if it is allowed they would do it. The employer failed to realize that this
means Amanda will need to be doing certain tasks related to her degree. So, why
not take the quickest and easiest way out of the situation. I still think that
based on her recent diagnosis she should disclose if for no other reason to
point out to the employer that it may not have been her fault the mistakes that
were made. According to things I am reading even if they continue with the
course of action that they are taking they cannot refuse to talk to her about
the disability and possible solutions that do not cause undue hardship. I did
not realize until doing some research that this was even a condition covered
under the ADA, but when looking at my school’s website it says that one of the
things that they cover on the disability website was ADHD. Being that they
offer services I started doing some research and low and behold it is covered.
So, we will see what happens. I imagine that they will continue the process and
htat is ok because we can compensate even if they tell her to take a hike on
Monday morning without even getting into the house money set aside. If anything
the house money will pay for her benefits. One of the reasons they said that
she needed to look for another job is because during her 3 days of training
when she started she was not told that names needed to be listed last name and
then first. So, she has been putting names in first and then last. To me this
sounds petty, but I told Amanda she should be careful when she started because
of some of the things she would come home and tell me sounded like a person
with unrelenting standards. Oh well, when one door closes another one opens.
However, please keep us in your prayers during this transition.

Well glad you hadn’t jumped right in to one then.
Hopefully it won’t take long before she can find herself another and better
job.

We Will not be buying a house anytime soon so it seems. Today the bottom
dropped right out from under us with the news that Amanda would be losing her
job. Please keep us in your prayers. Talk to you later.
