How do I get employers to stop illegally discriminating based on disability? It's not something I can easily conceal either, because I have to wear sunglasses all the time. I've applied to 120 engineering jobs and they always break off contact when they find out

what is your eye issue OP?
Grayson White
Autoimmune retinopathy. I still have 20/20 central vision and can drive and do all the job functions, but I have patchy peripheral vision loss and I have to keep my sunglasses on or else my retinas get toxic from light exposure.
Jonathan Flores
Are you that guy that posted in that ">we do not discriminate based on etc" thread last night?
Juan Perry
Yes.
Jose Baker
You sure it is real disability? Sounds like mental illness
Matthew Ross
Sounds like you just are crazy
Bentley Fisher
Well memed.
Josiah Hill
just hire a recruiter and/or a lawyer and ask their advice.

>Autoimmune retinopathy
They won't hire you because your condition can lead to swift loss of eyesight, and you will sue them because they "made you" work in a well lit area and this "caused" the degradation of your condition further. Your kike lawyer will say the damages exceed $500K+ from future loss of work and eyesight.
It's pretty stupid to demand people hire you who you simply intend to sue.
Jack Harris
just tell them straight up your problem so you can directly weed out the ones that dont want you
Camden Fisher
I'm on an assload of medication to keep it in check. I just need a job.
Joseph Phillips
Just go in there, look them strait in the eye, and shake their hand
Landon Myers
This right here. Be open and honest. The good employers will respect it.
Kevin Flores
He has no peripheral... better not shake any hands. Might end up in a crotch or two.
Blake Barnes
look man I know it sucks, but you are a walking liability to most employers
there are usually resources to find work for people with visual impairments, its not going to work just doing a normal job search if you have a specific condition
Landon Fisher
What is natural selection?
Grayson Smith
Apply for a job as a vampire or night shift parking garage security etc.
Jaxson Ross
Work for the government.
More specifically, if you're an American:
opm.gov
There are positions for engineers in gov out there as well, or just apply as generic college grad, etc.

What do you mean by "retinas get toxic from light exposure"?
Owen Diaz
That's a federal crime for them to do that.
I don't claim to understand how it works, but sun exposure makes it worse. I see these super bright flashing lights and the affected areas of my vision fade out.
Christian Reyes
By engineer you meed programmer? If so, focus on finding remote work.
My coworkers have know my voice for 3 years now, but they've never seen my face.
