Second, you must still be able to do the essential requirements of your job. Third, you must be able to show that your employer discriminated against you based on your narcolepsy. Acts of discrimination include, but are not limited to, your employer not allowing you to miss work for medical appointments, your boss not providing reasonable at-work accommodations for you condition, and your employer not accommodating your need to take occasional naps.
