BAD BACK NOT PROTECTED BY ADA
 
 
A service worker had back injuries which "affected his life and the lives of his family members." However, he did not have an ADA-protected disability because he was able to perform all major life activities. "While he continued to experience some pain and discomfort while performing some tasks and was not able to perform some activities to the extent that he would have liked, he never testified that he was unable to perform any major life activities."
 
(Rooney v. Koch Air LLC, 7th Cir.)
