With the economy in a perpetual state of disarray, people are doing whatever they can to find gainful employment. The office workers are now construction workers, the waiters are now janitors, and yes even the odd C.E.O. is now but a lowly short order cook. However, as I was perusing the news today ....as one does, over coffee and crumpets ...no that's a lie...I hate crumpets!! Anyways, I came upon an interesting story about a young lady who works...or should I say WORKED at Citibank. Apparently this women was fired for being "Too Attractive" and having a distracting effect on the males that worked with her. She is now engaged in a law suit with said bank.
Yes, that is her.... Ms. Debrahlee Lorenzana, 33 and a divorced single mother. Yes I do agree that she is attractive, however a few points come to mind that I would now like to point out.
A.) Good for you Deb...sue the shit out of those idiotic fools!! I hope you end up owning that bank honey!!
B.) The very simple fact that this woman was fired for being "Too Attractive" says to me that the management in that particular bank is smoking some good drugs or just plain STUPID!! The problem isn't Debrahlee Mr. Bank Manager.....it's your MALE employees who apparently haven't had a date and/or sex in 1000 years. Yes Debrahlee is attractive, but she is not APHRODITE, and there are plenty of attractive women out there in the workforce today, NOT getting fired for what I consider to be one of the STUPIDEST reasons EVER!!!
C.) As I said above, the real problem is your male employees. If they are being "distracted" by an attractive woman and cannot perform their jobs correctly ....then they are obviously in the wrong line of work and should perhaps think about construction or serving on a submarine!! To blame a woman instead of THE OBVIOUS culprits, (the male horndogs) is ridiculous. You need to rethink your discipline strategy and punish those that are.....oh I don't know ...ACTUALLY RESPONSIBLE!!
So to sum it all up folks....in a phrase.... C'MOOOONNN REALLLLYYY!!!?? If I don't see a "fake news" skit about this on SNL I will be very surprised!! It's shit like this that make individuals lose faith in the world!! When did we become so ...well down right STUPID?! So I suppose the moral of this story is .....If you are Good-Looking....no scratch that....if you are even a MILDLY attractive woman.....think long an hard before you apply to Citibank...because apparently with the exception of you....the staff is comprised of horribly ugly women and men with perpetual boners and the distractibility factor of a 2 year old!
Good luck Deb, I hope you slaughter them in the lawsuit, and when you win be sure to write that manager a nice little letter saying thank you for all the money, if he's not fired within the next week for making such a colossal blunder.!! ;)
