Reference no: EM133809722
Mary is obese. She weighs 380 pounds, and doesn't mind being this way. Because of her weight, her knees are shot, and she needs to walk with a cane or a walker. She's been diagnosed with diabetes, and needs an insulin pump at all times. Her diabetes has effected her eyesight, and she can't read a computer screen unless it's an extra large/ultra high resolution screen. Even with all this help, Mary is till having a tough time with her work. She's unpleasant, bossy, demanding, super-sensitive, and just seems to barely keep her head above water.
Tom sees all the assistance Mary gets from their boss. She gets a closer parking spot. She gets to keep food and drinks at her desk that other employees aren't allowed to have, because she claims it's necessary to maintain her blood sugar. She's frequently late for work, often blaming it on the extra time it takes her to drive since she has to be extra slow and careful because of her eyesight. Tom suffers from depression. Some days he can't even get out of bed. But he does't walk around telling everyone about his condition, and does't want anyone at work to know. But it's making his depression worse to see how well Mary gets treated, while he's on discipline for chronic lateness and failure to get his daily work done.
Assume Mary gets fired. She's in an at-will employment state, and her manager just got tired of having to put up with her attitude and constant neediness. What does Mary have to do in order to prove a prima facie case of disability discrimination? EXPLAIN each element and how it applies to Mary.
