Post Body

I worked for a Automobile Manufacturing company for 8 years. While I was creating back ups for a robot that I just programmed I got bit by a Black Widow spider. I was out for 6 weeks and don't you know it, my first day back I got bit again by a Brown Recluse spider and was out for another 6 weeks.

My first day back to work, about half way through my shift I was called to take a drug test. Nissan North America fired me on the spot for failing the drug test. The doctor said that I tested positive for Dextroamphetamine and said that I was smoking Crystal methamphetamine. I showed him the prescription for Dextroamphetamine for a medical condition that I have had for 25 years. Dextroamphetamine is used to treat Narcolepsy.

Is there anything I can do?
