Fired for being irresistible....
by J_A pirate Fri Jan 11, 2013 11:42 am
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2012/12/melissa-nelson-dental-assistant-fired-for-being-irresistible-is-devastated/After working as a dental assistant for ten years, Melissa Nelson was fired for being too “irresistible” and a “threat” to her employer’s marriage.
“I think it is completely wrong,” Nelson said. ”I think it is sending a message that men can do whatever they want in the work force.”
On Friday, the all-male Iowa State Supreme Court ruled that James Knight, Nelson’s boss, was within his legal rights when he fired her, affirming the decision of a lower court.
“We do think the Iowa Supreme Court got it completely right,” said Stuart Cochrane, an attorney for James Knight. “Our position has always been Mrs. Nelson was never terminated because of her gender, she was terminated because of concerns her behavior was not appropriate in the workplace. She’s an attractive lady. Dr. Knight found her behavior and dress to be inappropriate.”
For Nelson, a 32-year-old married mother of two, the news of her firing and the rationale behind it came as a shock.
dude need to control himself...but then again i guess that was the only option he had....

Don't have these people nothing else to worry about?
Btw, is it a hobby for american people to bring something infront of a judge to decide about it? It seems like a sport to sue companies in the US to me.

We can learn many things from Americans.
Too bad they all involve examples of retardation

Oh and I don't know maybe how to make all those tv shows and movies the entire world loves. And perhaps you can learn things from the half of the country that actually has seen an atlas and doesn't make broad statements against other countries like you do.

America does have a hard standing in Europe for the last few years. It seems to become 'cool' to be somewhat anti-American. With lots of thanks to Bush I think

I'm just tired of those people who are against America being anti other countries, when they have to be hypocrites to have that view.

Well, yeah, but it's there none the less. But it's not only about America but also about other topics
