An ex-Marine awarded a Purple Heart after being (TOO STUPID TO
DUCK!) wounded in combat says his bosses won�t let him come to
work with his trained service dog.
�I was told by my supervisor that HR said that if I showed up
with the dog I�d be fired,� Yaunce Long told Fox & Friends
Saturday.
Long said he installs phone lines for Cincinnati Bell in Ohio.
He has a service dog, named C4, to help him control anxiety
caused by post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). He was
diagnosed with the condition after a 10-year stint in the
Marines in Afghanistan and Iraq. He was with counter-
intelligence.
Long said that each day for a week he was sent home without pay
when he showed up with C4.
�Basically, they�ve treated the dog as if it's an option,� he
said.
Long said he has requested an accommodation under the Americans
with Disabilities Act.
�I�ve pleaded with the company,� he said. �I�ve gone through all
the necessary paperwork. I provided everything that they asked
for and I even followed up with them to make sure I had
everything in proper order because I wasn�t sure of the process
either.�
He said his application has languished for months because the
company is stonewalling.
�Despite repeated effort we have yet to receive any information
regarding the current status of Yaunce�s condition and its
effect on his ability to perform his duty,� Cincinnati Bell told
Fox & Friends.

Deer Yaunce, don't suck your dog's dick at work.
