The quoted ADA seems t suggest it applies to employees who need “reasonable accommodation”. I can see why it might be reasonable to accommodate a customer - or is the health insurance provider considered part of the workplace if the insurance is a a workplace benefit?
But a stranger phoning out of the blue - how does that even pretend to be someone to which reasonable accommodation is due? By that logic, every place of business would need a sign language person, an amplified phone setup, and rubber bumpers on all sharp corners.
I don’t think sense has anything to do with it. It was a random ranter on the phone.
Thanks, Blake, for finding the blog with the whole rant on it. I was pretty sure that we’d have been cribbed if there had been 5 required words, but you never know. That pretty much put the question to rest.
I get wrong numbers at work all the time, so there’s a possibility that I’d have gotten close to the 5 words by accident, just because I’d be asking questions to try to figure out where I could forward his call. It’s usually either Animal Control or the main PD line that they were trying to get.
Ah, but if you do that, you’re a Fourteenth Amendment Citizen and I am the Living Soil, so I can use a motor vehicle on the roads without a license, because I am not driving, I am traveling, as it is my inalienable right as a Citizen of The Several United States of America, and you cannot stop me, for my signature is not in ALL-CAPS, it is a sigil, and the nature of the sigil is Me, My Godly And Sovereign Self, as per The Constitution of 1789, and I am not the straw-man entity to which you refer, and if I yell over you loudly enough, the bailiffs will not taze me, handcuff me, and drag me out of this fictional courtroom of Commercial Law because I do not understand for I refuse to stand under the contractual tort law… aaaaahflops over, tazed
Anyway, the five magic words are “Are you completely fucking insane?” and then a duck with a cigar in its bill drops down and gives you a hundred dollars.
Pretty impressive. In just 20 hours we went from “I’m an anonymous guy working at an anonymous location for an anonymous company who got an perplexing & poorly understood call from an anonymous guy” to “This is him & where he lives and what he’s ranting on about.”
