			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After a costly and mind-boggling legal battle, one manager may regret what he ate for lunch. <span id="more-137"></span></p>
<p>Theresa Bailey, a telesales account manager at marketing firm Selectabase, sued her former employer, claiming she was sexually discriminated against during the three months she worked there.</p>
<p>Her major claim was against line manager David Nye, who apparently aimed his rear end in her direction and made Bailey the target of his repeated flatulations.</p>
<p>More upsetting to Bailey &#8212; and to us &#8212; was the fact that Nye seemed to enjoy breaking wind in her direction, since he&#8217;d laugh during it and mention it to his male co-workers.</p>
<p>Bailey was so humiliated by Nye&#8217;s actions that she quit. We&#8217;re surprised she wasn&#8217;t asphyxiated first.</p>
<p>After bringing up the harassment suit, Bailey was awarded a $2,500 settlement, and the company had to pay her legal fees.</p>
<p>This sort of workplace camaraderie comes as a surprise to Selectabase&#8217;s director, Steve Selwood. He described the company&#8217;s employees as &#8220;nice nice, not sugary nice people to deal with.&#8221; Maybe if Nye was &#8220;sugary nice&#8221; he&#8217;d have cut the cheese in the other direction.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sitting in a restroom for five hours could earn you enough to buy a really nice house? <span id="more-80"></span></p>
<p>New York resident Gokhan Mutlu sued JetBlue $2 million for the honor of residing in a bathroom during his five hour flight. He sued on the grounds of &#8220;extreme humiliation.&#8221;</p>
<p>He didn&#8217;t start the flight in the facilities. When he got to the airport he was told the flight was too full. But a nice flight attendant was willing to sit in the jump seat and give Mutlu the passenger seat.</p>
<p>Mutlu&#8217;s comfy accommodations only lasted 90 minutes into the flight. The jump seat wasn&#8217;t as comfortable as the flight attendant planned so the pilot told Mutlu he&#8217;d have to give up the seat.</p>
<p>But where was Mutlu to go? The pilot told him to go hang out in the bathroom. The jump seat wasn&#8217;t an option since it was for crew use only. So, off Mutlu went.</p>
<p>Since the toilet didn&#8217;t have a seat belt, he was scared when the plan hit some turbulence. But at least he didn&#8217;t have to wait in line to go to the bathroom. And he had plenty of privacy.</p>
