John is a recovering alcoholic who is currently enrolled in a rehabilitation program. John applied for a sales position with Megahotels and received a favorable review by the human resources manager during his interview.

In fact, when he left the interview, John had the distinct impression that the job was his. However, a week passed and he heard nothing from the company.

John called the hotel and was finally referred to the director of sales. The conversation went like this: “John, we are not going to hire you. Quite frankly, even though your sales experience fits our needs, we are afraid that the pressure you would feel on this job might knock you off the wagon. We do not want to be responsible for that.” Does John have a case under the ADA? Why or why not?
