• noting that seemingly contradictory statements of disability can coexist, but only when the plaintiff adequately explains the discrepancy
• considering both pre-termination and post-termination applications for disability benefits in assessing whether the plaintiff was a qualified individual with a disability under the ADA
• applying the Cleveland analysis in the context of a motion for judgment as a matter of law
• finding plaintiff failed to establish a question of fact with respect to his ability to perform the essential functions of his past work where he offered contradictory statements in his SSDI and ADA filings, rather than reconciling the two claims
• A plaintiff may not “make contradictory representa- tions regarding his ability to work and rationalize the conflict with no more of an explanation than his own change of mind.”
