The ADA says that people who have disabilities that can perform the job "with reasonable accomidations" can not be descriminated against. The key part here is "do the job". Meaning that your instructions maybe given in sign language or written out for you but you must be able to fulfill all the responsibilities of the job. You state that due to your medical conditions you "get less work done" than your co-workers. You further state that Kroger expectsyou "to do the same" as your co-workers. Guess what? The ADA agrees with Kroger. If/when you lose your job it's not because of your disability, it's because you can't do the job.

If you took the job, you should be able to perform the duties of that job. Otherwise take a lesser job that better suits your capabilities.
I can't figure out what you mean when you say "Two years ago they tried to take my Head, but I beat them"?
Looks to me like you want the same pay as the other workers, but concede you can't do the same work.

I'm over 50 and have documented medical conditions plus I'm deaf and receive SSD benefits, so I'm covered under the ADA...A new boss come and didn't like me, so he tried to use my medical conditions to say I could not do the job. With some help I won.,but now another new boss has came and again this person wants me gone.. It looks like they will bully me til I go....
