ok...this might sound very hilarious but the reality of the situation is still baffling...and am yet to find out anywhere in the worlds constituition where it says a man or woman cant be employed be such a person is way too pretty, beautiful or attractive for such position...
this is the dilemma of a A 33-year-old single mother who has filed a lawsuit against Citigroup, after Citibank allegedly fired her for being too attractive.[can you believe that???]
Debrahlee Lorenzana was let go from the New York branch of the bank after being told that her choice of clothes made her 'too distracting' in the largely male-dominated office.
Lorenzana's lawsuit alleges that her bosses told her 'as a result of the shape of her figure, such clothes were purportedly 'too distracting' for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear'; hence, YOU ARE FIRED!
Lorenzana was given a list of clothes she would no longer be able to wear - including pencil skirts, fitted suits and polo necks.... 'I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I said, "You gotta be kidding me! I was like, Too distracting? For who? For you? My clients don't seem to have any problem."
'Where I'm from, women dress up - like put on makeup and do their nails - to go to the supermarket..
'I was raised very Latin. We're feminine. A woman in Puerto Rico takes care of herself’ she said.
A statement from Citigroup read: 'We believe this lawsuit is without merit and we will defend against it vigorously.
'We respect the privacy of all of our employees and therefore cannot comment more specifically on this litigation, this former employee's overall performance, or the reasons for her termination - which an arbitration panel must resolve.
'Citi is committed to fostering a culture of inclusion and providing a respectful environment in the workplace. We have a strong commitment to diversity and we do not condone, or tolerate, discrimination within our business for any reason
....hmnn....what do you guys think? i think its highly preposterous, Period!
