    This has been reported by The Huffington Post where it has 26 total pages of comments: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...n_2352022.html

    The Huffington Post also reported in this article about a very bizarre legal firing in which a dentist in Iowa actually fired his female assistant on the grounds that she's "attractive" and was seen as a "threat" to the dentist's marriage by both the dentist and his wife and the Iowa Supreme Court upheld the firing and even went as far as ruling that employers in Iowa can fire employees who are seen as an "irresistible attraction" and has otherwise did nothing wrong, how long do you think it might take for this to possibly happen here in Maryland?:

    Likewise, the grounds for legal dismissal are becoming even more bizarre in some cases. On Dec, 21, the Iowa Supreme Court ruled that a dentist acted legally when he fired an assistant he found attractive because he and his wife viewed his attraction to the woman as a threat to their marriage.

    The court actually ruled that an employer may fire an employee they see as an "irresistible attraction," even if the employee has done nothing to encourage attraction, engage in flirtation, or otherwise done anything wrong.

    Yep, and all those retirement/disability checks are magically distributed to millions of Americans every month. Amazing.

    You really do need to get a clue. You want to see no work going on? Try taking a ride down North Ave, Eutaw, Edmonson Ave or Greenmount, etc.

    I'm waiting for all the lawsuits and disability claims being filed for breathing toxic air in the workplace.

    I am sure one or two of them is working. But obviously I have a clue that someone has enough time to count farts.

    What is the matter? Did this one hit too close to home?
