Sorry... either stop demanding your rights and do what they want or accept your about to be fired. They hold all the cards and discrimination "protection" is a joke.
I know what you mean...but I have a very solid case for discrimination, including audio recording of the CEO harassing me for my disability, which is completely admissible in court because I have verbal and written consent from him to have audio recorded the meeting. I have far too long of a paper trail documenting the systematic discrimination. The EEOC is already investigating.

Frankly, I haven't been demanding anything anymore. I just document and add it to the EEOC complaint. Win or lose, I refuse to take it sitting down. I was abused and attacked and victimized my whole life, I'm not letting my employer rape me too.

To be safe though, I have been extremely compliant with HR and documented my requests to them for coaching to help me "communicate" better (it's a joke). Even though my boss tells me one thing then reprimands me and tells me another, I just smile and say "okay," and document it. I don't put up any fight with her at all.
