re: #66 Learned Mother of Zion

OK a few comments:
1. She was hired as a temp data entry clerk, not to model and sell underwear to customers.
2. Businesses may require employees to adhere to a dress code.
3. Gloria Allred has become involved. I don’t see where anyone’s civil rights have been violated.

A few observations after reading the Post article, as well as seeing some of the photos of the supposed “inappropriate” clothing.

The dress she was wearing was relatively form-fitting, but not a “clingy” style by any means. Also, she showed no cleavage, and the dress was knee-length. This dress was entirely business-appropriate.
Secondly, the fact that she was told to tape up her breasts, because they were too big and then forced her to wear a bathrobe is flat-out harassment.

Finally, I have no problem whatsoever with her having Gloria Allred representing her. Allred is the top attorney in the country, bar none, when it comes to women’s rights issues. She does grandstand by picking up high-profile cases, but her track record is absolutely stellar.
