Discrimination Inside Three Staffing Agencies

The discrimination that I stomached at the hands of three staffing agencies.

I hold the Guinness record in two departments. A piece of evidence's that I've labored as an Accountant for more than fifty companies in America. Another record is that I've been wrongfully terminated from many of them because of my physical disability.

I suffered a fall on the head when I was two years old. The fall incapacitated me, and rendered me with no motor skills. It was a narrow escape. I could have been brain damaged. It does suffice to exclaim that God saved the day! My father also saved the day! When I was four years old, he presented me with a piano on my birthday. The piano rewired my brain, and accorded me minimal motor skills. I'm truly blessed. Owing to my brain injury, I excel in advanced projects as opposed to basic ones.

Though, I'm clumsy at driving, grasping objects, standing, and walking, I've made up in fighting passionately for children, playing classical music, storytelling, and writing. During my undergraduate years at Hunter College, I scored mostly Bs and Cs because I moved around a great deal. Moving from point A to B intensifies my disability. In my graduate years at various graduate schools, and a law school, I was a straight A student. I didn't move around a lot. The classes met once a week. Thus and thus, I've proven that God adorned me with exceptional talent after my fall.

My father always taught me to tap into my advanced aptitude. He didn't give up on me. If anything, he bestowed upon me endless love until his dying day on October 7, 2003. His love would forever patina inside me. My father and I shared an extraordinary bond. He also fell down. He fell down from his horse, and slipped into a coma. Then, he woke up on my birthday.

Like I said, I've been getting the cold treatment from many companies because of my physical disability. Whenever a company fired me, I'd walk away. I invented the concept of walking away since I was two years old. On June 20, 2003, the day before my June 21, 2003 birthday, my only child was kidnapped. Four months later, my father died on October 7, 2003. Since my son's kidnapping, and father's death, I graduated to the concept of suing companies for refusal to hire me, sexual harassment, and wrongful terminations. The brain is a mass of muscles. It took both my son's kidnapping, and my father's death for my brain to mature. I'd now like to share with you the acts of discrimination, obsession, and terrorism that I suffered inside three staffing agencies in America.

To date, Accountemps is the staffing agency that I've worked with the longest. I started laboring for them in 1991, and they stopped assigning me to contract assignments ten years later in 2001. Since the ill fated day on September 10, 2001, the day before the September 11, 2001 massacre, Accountemps blacklisted me. Why? Accountemps made a career of selling me to their clients. They brought prostitution to the table as opposed to professionalism. I'm an Accountant.

I've a Bachelors degree in Accounting, Economics, and Mathematics from City University of New York. I was a straight A student in my graduate classes, including MBA courses, and a JD Class. Accountants are one of the most professional people, if not the most professional. I've always known where to draw the line. I never mix business with pleasure.

Furthermore, I articulated in my W4 that I was married. But Accountemps deliberately chose to look the other way. They refused to grasp reality because they hoped to sell me to the highest sick and twisted bidder in 2001. Thus, and thus, some employers became obsessed with me. Some falsely imprisoned me in the bathroom, hallway, and kitchen where they assaulted me mercilessly. At one time, I was locked inside the reception area for more than two hours. One employer locked the gates, and returned home with the keys so I wasn't able to leave the premises until two security guards opened the gates. If this isn't both an act of obsession, and terrorism, then what is it? I await your response.

During a bowling game, I fell down because neither grasping objects nor running is my forte. In the same month, Accountemps wrongfully terminated me from the contract to hire assignment. Employers are obligated by law to accommodate a disabled person. Isn't it dire enough that I have minimal motor skills? Why should I be blamed, and fired for having fallen down?

As an accountant, I kept the budget in 2000. For the record, all the accounting files are confidential. Sometimes, some of these employers would lurk behind my office in the hopes of bumping into me. As a disabled woman, I would rise slowly from my chair to prevent any falls only to witness one of these evil minds wallop into me. Some loitered around dangerously behind my cubicle or office while others waited anxiously in the restrooms.

I have a small and maybe insignifigant point of view. After one altercation, after one violation of my rights, after one solitary act of sexual harassment, I would leave and seek employment elsewhere. You seem like you may be able to come up with a conspiracy theory or two but you seem like a lucid person. You tend to blame everyone else for all your problems, and I think you are making most of this up. Let me guess, the complaints you file with upper management never bear fruit because it is always your word against theirs, and with as many altercations that you have, it is difficult to find your story cridible. As sad as it is that you may be telling the truth, I just don\'t believe you. It doesn\'t add up. if you were telling the truth, you would quit and sue right away. Instead, you stayed until it effected your whole family. Now even if you were telling the truth, you\'ve got to admit some responsibility should fall on you for that. Many people struggle to overcome adversity every day. It is not easy, yet they pull through. I am not going to sit here and pretend that I know how hard it is to live with a disability such as yours, but I can tell you that part of the reason people like to pick on you is because you enjoy being a victim. While you may not enjoy being picked on, you do enjoy the pitty from other people for the hardships you suposidly endure. If what I am saying is pissing you off, please note that I am still typing as a favor. It is a favor because I also know that you are a drama queen and after reading this, you will go crying on the closest shoulder. When you do, you should read it out loud and leave this last part out. Second thought, you may want to keep this to yourself as whoever you read this to may have a brain cell or two and agree with me.
