I don't get your point. You haven't clarified the part where you were being discriminated. There are many people in the USA today with fake IDs and SSN cards. This is why they probably requested your birth cert. in order to ascertain you are a US citizen. If they refuse to offer you the job, let them shove it up. This gas station doesn't pay as well as the others; my sister worked in one of them and was paid far less than in the other gas station chains do.

no it is not discrimination it's called proof or residency and even though you gave her your ssn that doesn't really prove anything it's pretty easy to get a fake one most companies require that paper work before you get started and if you don't supply it that they have the legal right to not hire you.so if you don't have a birth certificate than your not gonna get that job so i would give her a copy or the original so they can copy it ... just so you know descrimination is if they would not hire you because you were pregnant or your skin color or religion it has nothing to do with the paper work you need to hand in

Why did she say that she needed your birth certificate? Are you a teenager? Is she trying to verify your age?
