I am an employee

I am an individual with disabilities and applied for a part-time job as a teacher assistant at The Kiddie Academy Daycare Center in Bridgeville PA about 5 months ago. I have learning disabilities and am speech and hearing impaired. They were aware of this when they decided to hire me on. Something felt a little fishy when they hired me on, but I just decided to brush it off of my shoulders. They had me start off in a classroom and told me this was the classroom were I would be working. A few weeks into my employment, the assistant directer came into the classroom were I was working and said that they wanted me to work in another classroom instead. Come to find out they didn't really want me in any class permanently that they were just going to have me flout around from classroom to classroom. (I don' think they really wanted me to work in any classroom to begin with weather a flouter or not). I completed the same paperwork as every employee they hire I also went in for a TB Test, but when they hired me they also had me sign some additional paperwork stating that I was only a volunteer and not an actual employee, but they were still going to pay me. After doing some research of my own and sharing the information with both family members and my Office of Vocational Rehab Counselor, I came to find out they Kiddie Academy made me sign this paperwork because they knew I had disabilities and they wanted me to sign to state that I was only a volunteer and that way if they felt I didn't perform well to their standards they could just fire me without getting in trouble with The Americans with Disabilities Act Law. I continued to work for Kiddie despite them making me sign this volunteer paperwork. Unfortanlly two months after the fact I was laid off from my job because of Covid-19. Kiddie Academy recently just opened back up a month ago. They have told me repeatedly via email and text message that they had plans to bring back part-time staff, but that they were waiting for more families to reenroll their kids. They have said that they only have full-time staff on the roster, but after sharing the most recent schedule with my mother and OVR Consular we all found out they did bring part-time staff back in fact everybody was brought back expect me and one other person. They have continuously been lying to me. I don't believe they had any plans to bring me back. In fact I believe Covid-19 was a great way for them to just try and get rid of me without telling me directly. They wanted me to figure out on my own that they didn't want me as an employee and they just wanted me to quit my job. They didn't want to tell me that they were going to fire and lay me off because they are afraid that I will sue them for discrimination against a person with disabilities. I have since then quit my job at the Academy.
