Those letter ones always irritate me. Just like the NAR-ish ones always leave me thinking "real humans don't talk like this", the letters make me wonder how/why so many people believe the "elaborate recounting of the author's wacky hijinks" style all these letters have. It's almost like these people have never interacted with real humans or, in this case, employers before.

I'm pretty sure the ADA says that a business can not require proof that an animal is indeed a service animal. In the U.S. anyway but this person lives in imaginary land so it doesn't matter I suppose.

Forget the ADA thing, wouldn't it be hugely illegal for a previous employer to provide that kind of information? As I understood it, aren't they only able to confirm or deny the person worked there and if they did verify the dates?

That's a common misconception. Most places won't say anything because there's a chance you will try to take them to court for lying about their reference, and missing even minor details can spell disaster for them. So most places will just confirm the most basic, objective information and never touch subjective qualities like your effectiveness at work and etc

An employer has a right under Title I of the ADA to request documentation that the employee has need of the service animal, as well as evidence that the animal is actually trained to assist with the medical need in question and will not be a disruption in the workplace. So for example, while a person can get away with a pug in a purse as a service animal while dining out, at work a supervisor could say nope to the dog without actual evidence of a medical need and the dog being part of a reasonable accommodation for said need.

These were the ones for whom we reserved our greatest scorn as well as our Big Gun: a tiny, little bottle of Murine eye drops that we kept under the bar. To earn the title of Uber rear end in a top hat, they had to been a creeper to any female patron or especially to one of our cocktail waitresses. Once they earned our scorn at this level, they got a few drops of Murine into their next drink. Now, Murine has long since changed its formula as I understand it, so unfortunately this no longer works. What it did back then, however, was give Mr. Creepyhead a good 30 minutes or so of the most explosive diarrhea they’d ever known. Let’s just say this can be “inconvenient” in a busy nightclub with a line at the head.

That might have popularized it, but the eyedrop as revenge idea is definitely older than that. Snopes lists a 1995 case in its page debunking the "Visine causes diarrhea" myth.

Usually the employer already knows about why an employee might need a Service Animal. Because of Reasonable Accomodations laws, you must first explain your need and why the animal will help. Obvious cases, or where someone was hired and already had the dog, don't apply. You can't just go to Service Dogs R Us and walk out with an animal, either. You and the animal have to be matched, then there's a training time for you and the dog to see if you're compatible. The only relationship more closely bonded than a service animal one is called 'marriage'. I have a Service Dog, and she has saved my life more times than I can count. Currently she's recovering from cancer surgery. I'll be a wreck until her tests come back.

My dad is Ron Swanson quote:He asked around the entire village for 2 days asking if anyone seen anything. When he finally found out what happened he drove around their house for about 3 hours until he saw one on the bike and chased them. He found it in a yard a while later and took it back. I was 12 at the time.  quote:In his words "some rear end in a top hat painted the clear plastic sheet black" instead of the metal and he fell through. But he "had a job to do" and in his eyes he was fine, so he carried on with his day.  quote:His mother died about 7 years later but he doesn't regret it. He only regrets it when people say he isn't good enough for my uni educated mother. Which we despise, it's the only time he's ever shown weakness. He didn't even show it when his father or any of his friends died.  quote:Found out my boyfriend had a turbulent relationship with his dad, like he had. He wanted him to know he had another dad that loved him but didn't know how. He made himself feel less awkward by calling him shithead, lovingly though.  quote:At his best friend's memorial gathering that they have ever year. Came in like he had left the house earlier and said this. For an Irish man though I guess that's a little weak...  quote:He tripped and his hand went straight into a tar pit. He took it out and flung his hand and the skin fell right off. Went into the doctor who fixed it with an anti-bac bag and told him he needed a few months to let it heal. When he asked this the doctor said "yes, but we'll schedule you in for amputation on Tuesday is that ok Sir?"... he lasted two weeks....  quote:We were very poor growing up, sharing cans of beans and making clothes out of bed sheets etc. I have no memories of him from before 10 years old and he hadn't attended a birthday til I was 16. I'm grateful.. in a weird way... that he was never there.... he's an awesome dad...

That is certainly a thing people are capable of doing. 4 hours of sleep a night at the max, and that's assuming he literally lives at work so he doesn't have to travel home for sleep. If we make the very generous assumption that it actually happened then they were probably poor because he was an incredibly lovely employee that always hosed up because he was always exhausted. Alternate idea, he worked normal hours and spent the rest of his time drinking and whoring and neglected his family to share cold tins of beans and wear bedsheets because he didn't give a gently caress.
