I am a disabled vet. I have been working for my current employer for four years. I was hired on vet preference points. Lately, I have been a victim of hostile work environment and discrimination due to a disability. At first I thought it was just me but it keeps getting worse. About 8 months ago I talked to a rehab counselor about alternate employment. Two weeks ago, out of the blue, I got a letter from him saying I was unemployable. I am not even 40 years old and hold a masters degree. Also, the local EEOC rep refuses to acknowledge an issue or help file a complaint, even with documented information and supporting law. If I am considering legal action, what should I do or not do and is there anything in particular that would help prove my side? Thank you.
