After being sick, Maria Carrillo was forced to pass a physical exam in order for her to return to work. Having to ride a bicycle and lift weights was difficult for Maria. She grew dizzy from the exercises and failed her exam. She was fired as a result. “I don’t understand how me taking a physical exam where I have to ride a bike is important,” she said. “I don’t work riding a bike in the fields.”
