I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last october when I went for a physical test for a paid on call department. Good thing they caught it, bad thing they didn't let me finish the fire academy. The doctor claimed that since I was a new diabetic, he wanted to see how the medication acted on me.
Well, one of the chiefs I talked to told me that I will have a hard time getting on a full time department due to my diabetes. He told me it does not fall under the ADA act. In fact he said he had to let one of his guys go cause of diabetes.
Is it true I will have a hard time getting hired because of it ?
