New Jersey Woman Says She Was Fired For Being Too Busty (ABC News) A New Jersey woman says she was fired from her job after her manager told her to "tape her breasts" down, and now has filed suit against the company claiming religious and sexual discrimination. Former data entry worker Lauren Odes said that after two days with Native Intimates, a midtown Manhattan wholesale lingerie company, a supervisor told her the store owners were not happy with her outfit, suggesting it was too "distracting." "When I first started working there, I asked what the dress code was, and I was just told to look around and see what everyone else was wearing," Odes said in a press conference Monday. "So I did. The dress was very casual athletic wear to business attire." Odes said the company owners are Orthodox Jews who were offended by her attire.

"Where does her money come from..."

A big portion comes from cases you never hear about. She hooks up with these clients and sends the wealthy defendant a letter threatening suit. She apologizes about all the unfavorable publicity filing the suit will create and hints it will be an absolute media circus. She then points out that all this could be avoided if the defendant would just settle pre-suit and no one would ever have to hear about it. Bingo, big settlement. That's how these kind of lawyers works. Sleazy but lucrative.

And what’s with the dyed white hair? I hate to say, she has the “porn star” look about her.

Exactly, unless she is a singer, as in Christina Aguilera... there is no point in looking like that.

"tape her breasts" down

Is that like "Tie Me Kangaroo Down"?

I have unfortunately had to counsel more than a few female employees over the years for improper attire on the job.

The task is always unpleasant, embarrassing, and requires a high degree of tact and diplomacy.

“You better tape up them boobies, Sweetheart!” will getcha into trouble every time. Like it’s clipped from a textbook on how NOT to do this.

The appearance of Gloria Allred usually indicates that the case is baseless.

Right. Allred effectively runs a blackmail racket and never goes to court.

How ridiculous! How could big breasts be a "distraction"??

I’ll stay with the sporty look instead of the dump truck carrying boulders.

OK, so here’s me reading this article:

Hmm, wore what everyone else was wearing...
Orthodox Jews, huh? Well, we’ll see...
Gray T-shirt and black jeggings with rain boots to work...
“tape down my breasts”, OK, that’s over the line...
Made her put on a bathrobe, well that would suck...
“go out and buy a sweater that “went to her ankles”, that’s over the line, too...
while out shopping for the sweater they call her and fire her, that was really wrong if true...
Now, attorney Gloria Allred has filed suit... WHOA,WHOA, WAIT, WHO’S HER LAWYER? Oh HELL no! NOT GUILTY!

Good grief....rather than making her top half larger, she should have gone for liposuction to make her fat a*## smaller.

Or found a treadmill.
