Bank Worker In 'too Sexy' Complaint

At Work

A woman bank worker is claiming she was fired from finance giant Citibank for dressing too provocatively.

Debrahlee Lorenzana, 33, told the New York Post she wore ordinary clothes, but her male bosses and co-workers still found her too alluring.

"Everything I wore was professional, things everybody wears in corporate America," she said. "The way they looked at what I wore was very disappointing."

She started as a business banking officer in a New York branch in September 2008 and shortly afterwards male bosses began making sexist comments about her appearance, according to her employment case papers filed in a Manhattan court.

She was told "she must refrain from wearing certain items of clothing, in particular, turtleneck tops, pencil skirts, fitted business suits, or other properly tailored clothing," the suit says.

"In blatantly discriminatory fashion, plaintiff was advised that as a result of the shape of her figure, such clothes were purportedly 'too distracting' for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear."

The single mother said "other female colleagues wore similar professional attire", and that some dressed far more provocatively, the papers say.

But her bosses said that those women were unattractive and did not count.

She was also told that "as a result of her tall stature, coupled with her curvaceous figure, she should not wear classic high-heeled business shoes, as this purportedly drew attention to her body in a manner that was upsetting to her easily distracted male managers".

Citibank said: "We believe this lawsuit is without merit and we will beat it vigorously."

I wouldn't mind placing a deposit.....

Touche

You missed the accent

The grave accent ( ` ) is a diacritical mark used in written Breton, Catalan, Dutch, French, Greek (until 1982; see polytonic orthography), Italian, Mohawk, Norwegian, Occitan, Portuguese, Scottish Gaelic, Vietnamese, Welsh, and other languages.

The word grave is derived from the Latin gravis (heavy). In English, the word is sometimes pronounced /ˈɡrɑːv/ grav, not like the word grave meaning "serious" or "tomb", which is pronounced /ˈɡreɪv/. It comes from French, where it is pronounced similarly; accent grave is pronounced [aksɑ̃ ɡʁav].

[KPARRIS-JONES]

I know, I just don't know how to insert it. ;) (a reflection of my wild night...)

A tutorial would be much appreciated. :D

Cor blimey I really needed to know that But on reflection, you are right We need to help Kynan, since he has said that his School didn't :bookworm:

We've told you, you are not old enough...

[KPARRIS-JONES]

Vic and Raist, I think that you really underestimate the level to which my simultanious hatred for the both of you raises when you bring my spelling into question. Just thought I'd throw that into the mix... :P ;)

I used to be a fantastic speller and I still am however the fact that it is so easy to edit mistakes on a PC means that I am far more relaxed with my spelling when using modern technologies. ;)

Also it's nice to see what you two can pick up on. :D
