Woman claims being fired from job for being "too hot"

NEW YORK (WABC) -- In a bizarre and bitter lawsuit, a woman who worked at a business in midtown Manhattan is suing her bosses. She claims she was fired for being "too hot" at work.

"When my supervisor asked me to tape down my breasts I asked my supervisor, are you kidding?" Lauren Odes, the former employer said.

Odes said it wasn't a joke, the 29 year old was appalled by the suggestion and what happened at the 5th Avenue headquarters of Native Intimate's, a wholesale lingerie business.

The allegations of gender and religious discrimination were spelled out in the complaint currently filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

The voluptuous blond was hired April 24th to coordinate shipments of sample to customers and maintained that her supervisors repeatedly complained about her physical appearance and attire, even though she insists there was no dress code, co-workers wore tank tops, and were casually dressed.

Actually she was probably fired because she's too stupid, but in the mind of a girl like that, it means "too hot" lol

I'd also fire her for sounding like The Nanny.

bb-from watching her in the interview and looking at her throught the eyes of someone that photographs hot women I do not feel she is stupid but the likely thing is she was once *really* hot-she's very pretty but age is taking some of that edge, and she still has the "I'm all that." attitude.

In other words, my first assement is while she'd be nice to photo I'm not sure I'd want to do it because she is likely a bit of a bitch.

Remember-beauty s only skin deep, ugly goes to the bone.

Egads! In the Flesh! A living, breathing, speaking Barbie Doll! With breast design by Dolly Parton. What in the world did they hire her for if her appearance was going to be an issue? I'd like to know the back story on this one, i.e., did the owner's/proprietor's wife have a hand in the firing? That sort of thing.

I looked at the video..........

....yet another dog faced fake breast tacky chic with a self-inflated and delusional idea that she is hot (last I remember that term it also included a pleasing face) when in fact she should have had a brain augmentation instead of one for those mammalian udders.........


One more tip girl..........you can't replace youth with excessive make up......and beauty academy student failed hair dyes...................

Dressing to hot? Yet at least a dozen times a day we see commercials on sex drugs. Erectile dysfunction,
Is this the right time? If you have an erection for more than 4 hours?
And than there is the female creams and natural herbs etc. Hypocritical BS

She looks like Courtney Love’s kid sister. Personally I don’t find her attractive. But that’s me. Fake Blonde, fake Boobs, fake Lips, fake Eye Lashes, fake Eye Color. Tells a lot about a person.

15 minutes of fame. That’s all it is.

Reminds me of coworkers who couldn't do certain parts of their job because it might harm their hair/nails/makeup.

If her boss asked her to change her attire on multiple occasions, and she refused, then I don't see a problem with firing her. If you want Dolly Parton breasts, then you can't run around in tank tops unless your working for hooters.

Oh, please do be careful. You're a polite human. I think it was Dimensiondancer that indicated a dog who uses the telephone. Dog may have graduated to the computer - and this forum - by now.

More remarkable things have happened.

She absolutely has a case. She wore plain dresses to work. What happened is those repressed Jewish boys who hired her (she's also Jewish) were going nuts over her and distracting themselves. They hired her knowing what she looked like, and then regretted it. Trying to make her wear that hideous orange bathrobe would be the last straw to me. You don't know those are fake boobs either. Jeez.

Couldn't have couched it better myself!

You guys aren't getting it. This is in New York City. If she was trash, she wouldn't have even been looking for a job. She's only 24. People talk like that down there, it doesn't mean you're a ho. Like I said, she wore plain dresses. Those guys even complained about a plain purple dress. They told her to tape down her breasts. They told her to wear a nasty ratty orange bathrobe (see video). They themselves were in the underpants with hearts on them business. But they are Orthodox Jews. I suppose it's hopeless for me to try to explain further, but I know what I'm saying. She went for a JOB and they couldn't handle it. It's not her fault.

:rolleyes:

not very attractive - the kind of look that you just know requires tons of makeup, and will not age well

The competition in NYC for jobs is spectacular. She probably took a look in the mirror one day when she was younger and realized she was no beauty, so she dyed her hair and put on makeup to compete and to feel better about herself. It doesn't make her a ho. Those guys were on about the boobs, nothing else. They couldn't handle the boobs, even in nondescript plain old dresses. Like I said, repressed Orthodox Jewish boys. It's kind of sad.

One more thing: this almost reminds me of muzzies telling women to wear burkas, you know?

Think about it.

No one here has called her a ho.

If I was to wager a bet I’d say it was the other female co-workers that had the issue. Not the “Jewish” boys you speak of. JMHO…

I doubt it. That's not what she says, and that's not what the lawsuit is about.

Actually, it is not a little thing. Your employers simply CANNOT tell you things like tape down your boobs and wear ratty bathrobes when you ARE wearing proper work clothes. It's big.

All I know is this. I worked at a software development company once which employed this woman that thought she was the hottest thing going. She would come to work in fish net stockings and high heels. She’d wear tight dresses and push up bras. She would nip out and do nothing to cover it. She had long nails, fake eye lashes and wore contacts that changed her eye color from day to day. Needless to say she got a lot of attention from us guys. The lesser attractive women of the office lodged complaints on a regular basis to the management about her appearance and forced the company to change its dress codes to limit what this woman could get away with. No more fish net stockings so she started wearing the panty hose that had the tattoo looking stuff woven into them. So the other women forced the company to again change dress code to not allow tattoo hose as well. These other hens kept bitching and complaining to the management to control this woman and what she wore that she finally quit. NONE of us guys cared what she wore and how she appeared. It was all the women of the office that had an issue. So I have a hard time buying that is was the “jewish” boys that couldn’t handle it.

This woman's statements are that the bosses told her these things. It is on THEM. She was in no way dressed inappropriately whatsoever.

Of course her superiors told her this. The women of the office complain to the management so that the MANAGEMENT would take care of it. That’s why they are MANAGEMENT. And she dressed appropriately according to whom? Her? What’s appropriate to one may not be appropriate to others. The woman I used to work with felt like EVERYTHING she wore was appropriate and couldn’t understand why everyone was against her.

There's one woman at my jobsite. She's about 5'10", and about 120 lbs. VERY "leggy". And her dress is wildly inappropriate for the workplace (unless that workplace includes a pole.) Her skirts (if you can call them that) end about 3/4" below her cooter. Her top, well, let's just say that you get to see all her "assets". You KNOW she's "hunting". Late 20's, the kind of woman that most men lose their minds for. Personally, I find her display disgusting and obvious. There is no place in a professional environment for ho's....

Did you see the dresses? Did you watch the video? Her bosses didn't even like the color PURPLE.

Some of you guys are disgusting me.

If YOU were a woman and were told to tape down your breasts and wear a ratty bathrobe, what would YOU do?

Regardless of what some of you think, she is definitely going to win this one. It's just outrageous.

She has a good case. Especially since she got pictures and recordings.

Her looks aside, her employers were in the wrong. Regardless of why she thinks she was harassed, her employers were in the wrong.

Complainant is not guilty of being hot.

Or, put another way, Complainant is hereby found guilty of being "not hot."

If you are "not hot," and you want people to think you are "hot," you could always stand next to Gloria Allred, thereby inviting a relatively favorable comparison.

Seriously...this broad apparently didn't start out with much in the looks department, and the ravages of time have only served to impoverish her further.

The world in which this poor self-deceiving wretch is deemed as "hot" is a world where eyes cannot see and mirrors do not exist. :lol:
