ADA Reasonable Accommodations

Tue, 11/10/2015 - 22:46

I recently had to stop driving and am trying to get a 'Reasonable Accomadation' to help get to work. Can you all let me know what kind of Reasonable Accomdations that you were able to get from your employers?

 

In my case, I am not able to drive. I do not live near public transporation. My employer asked me if I could get my wife to take me to work. My workplace is about 30 minutes to the west of where we live and she works 30 minutes to the east and that isn't practical. I am trying to get them to subsidize the cost of taking a taxi (UberX) car to work by getting them to pay the additional cost of taking a taxi. I'm estimating that it costs 55 cents a mile and had to drive about ten miles. An Uber fare is about $15 and so I'm asking them to pay the difference (about $10 each direction). They haven't agree to this. Has anyone been able to get their employer to agree to this?

I want to use this opportunity to appreciate the great spell caster Lord Damguaard for helping me get back my relationship with my boyfriend when he ended and turned his back on me for quite a long period of time.I have great joy in me as i am writing this testimony about the great man called Lord Damguaard When my lover left me, and i never taught that i will be able to get him back after all he has put me through, But i am so happy that after the interference of Lord Damguaard i was able to get my lover back after 24 hours and i can proudly to say, that who ever need help in getting their lover back should contact Lord Damguaard@ Email:Lorddamguaardspelltemple@gmail.com/website:http://dmaguaardspelltemple.webs.com . I thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it. Once again thank you so much sir for your spell. Kayla Watson
