Now that's just BS! I like how turtle necks and pencil skirts were "banned" office wear. I guess some women really do need to wear a burka. Stupid! Although...I can't speak from experience but I'm guessing it's difficult to work with a hard on?

I think the low cut, cleavage popping top she's wearing in the one picture in the article is inappropriate for a conservative office setting, but maybe I'm just jealous that she has cleavage to pop! LOL

 

If she's complying with their dress code, it's total BS. It sounds like they just had a problem with her, period and it wouldn't have mattered what she wore.

the lady that set up my Chase Home Equity loan was smokin hot, and frankly, I woulda signed anything she put in front of me...

 

Which is probably how I misunderstood some of the terms of the loan, lol

[emkay64]

I only thought the one dress was a little risque for work..but the rest I thought was fine. Sounds like a lot of out of control males at that branch...seems more prudent to fire the losers and hire some men with self control.

 

"please no turtlenecks...it's too distracting"...WTF?

I guess even a turtle neck can be distracting knowing THAT body is beneath it. LOL

 

Someone should tell them to leave their x-ray vision and dirty minds at home.

I have worked in office setting like that and I would bet a month's salary that it had nothign to do with the men but instead their wives. Let a wife stop by and see a bombshell like that working in close proximity to their husband and many women would lose their minds. I have watched wives steer their husbands away from the hot women at parties and such too.

 

 

But why act surprised? Look how many women were pissed off that Sarah Palin was pretty.....she was smart, politically strong and able to hold her own and beat the men, had strong beliefs and was successful but all these women groups could see was how pretty she was and that was just too much to allow. Very pretty women have always been discriminated against.

[emkay64]

Palin is a dunce..and not all that hot to me. She's all right but honestly I don't see the appeal. She's strong and a good governor but her looks are just meh.

 

This woman is hot. I looked at the pictures and thought her clothes were just fine. If she's doing her job and they truly fired her based on her looks I hope she sues their pants off!

[eddo]

I hope she sues their pants off!

I think they agree...

[timesjoke]

Emkay, don't tell me you don't know there is more than just the clothing to consider as well. The way a woman walks can be more sexual than her dress, reading between the lines I would bet she was being showy in more ways than just the clothing.

 

If I was a woman and looked like that I would most likely want to show it off as well, but is the workplace a fashion show? She was warned several times to dress less sexy and she admits to refusing to do as her bosses ordered her to do. She is not stupid, she is using her looks and the sexy dress to get customers but those same looks and sexy clothing was causing issues with her co-workers and bosses.

 

Is it fair that she was fired? I believe she knew what she was doing, she was warned and instead of doing what she was told by her bosses she tried to go over their heads to get higher ups to approve of her sexy dress and look in spite of what her managers wanted. She decided to fight instead of changing her dress:

 

I was raised very Latin, you know? We're feminine. A woman in Puerto Rico takes care of herself. The Puerto Rican women here put down our flag."

 

Was she trying to say she dressed very sexual because she was Latin? And that the Puerto Rican women who didn't dress sexual were putting down their flag?

 

This comment and her attitude of defiance bothers me because she almost makes it seem that she does not care about her company or anything else but herself and her national identity as a Puerto Rican female.

 

 

 

I don't feel bad for her, she will get offers from playboy and other modeling gigs and be making ten times the money she used to make and in the industry she obviously really wanted to be in....fashion......she sure was not interested in trying to fit in with banking and business, she was way too interested in her personal appearance and looking as sexy as possible instead of looking business like.

[emkay64]

Good grief! If a pencil skirt and a turtle neck are too sexy what is she supposed to wear? A moo moo, a burka. She has a great body...so what is she supposed to do? Ugly Up? Of course she's sexually appealing and I have no doubt when she walks she turns heads. Did you go to the site and look through the photos? They weren't highly sexual..except that one off the shoulder dress dealio, but the other clothes were pretty freaking tasteful. Why do you assume that she's going to get naked for playboy? Geeze TJ one minute defending beautiful women, the next minute condemning. Why am I not surprised?

[eddo]

wait...

 

 

she's doing Playboy???

[timesjoke]

At first, yes. She was told by her bosses to ease up on her sexy look, she ignored the order and tried to fight it instead of doing the smart thing and doing as she was told "and then" fight it as a reasonable people would do. This is my biggest issue, she refused to even try, she admitted herself the onlyt hings she was willing to adjust was makeup and hair. Did you read the story? She has closet after closet of sexy designer clothing, her one drive is to dress sexy, everything else in her life is secondary.

 

 

Of course she's sexually appealing and I have no doubt when she walks she turns heads.

 

And that is a problem, just like if an extremely fat guy with his gut hanging out was walking around the office would also be a distraction, the company has a right to request that things don't be too disruptive in the workplace.

She admitted to having several closets of designer clothing emkay, do you really think those are the only clothes she wore there? Do you think it is possible that maybe they selected the less sexy outfits to make it look better than it was? Neither one of us were there emkay, we don't know how she dressed but we do have from her own lips that she refused to follow a direct order from her bosses not once but over, and over, and over again.

 

She offered as her excuse to refuse as her Latin background that forces her to dress that way and any woman who did not dress that way was putting down the Puerto Rican flag?????

 

 

Why do you assume that she's going to get naked for playboy?

 

Where did I ever say that? I said she would get offers, I never said she would accept, my point was that she was obviously more interested in fashion and such and this publicity would bring her some job offers in the field she was most aligned for based on her actions and words.

 

 

Geeze TJ one minute defending beautiful women, the next minute condemning. Why am I not surprised?

Why am I not surprised you again turn to attacking me as a person? You can't see beyond your own need to attack. You insert words I never said (such as claiming I said she would pose for playboy) then you get upset at me for what you inserted.

 

How about allowing us to discuss things without you constantly ignoring the points and instead only seeing what you want to see and going after me just because I don't agree with you?

[emkay64]

I'm too tired..just call yourself an idiot today. I hate the idea of the freaking ignore button yet here I am. So long TJ.

Well you will be missed, you know, I have always wondered at how many people that are so stuck on their own beliefs that they cannot accept ideas that do not conform to their own as even worthy of viewing or considering. I take acception to a lot of what other people say and do not agree with them but you don't see me get emotional about it.

 

The real problem with emkay is she can't address the points I made, it stands to reason that there is more to this story then just this one side emkay has used to make up her mind.

 

 

To me the really big problem is the woman refused a direct order several times from her bosses, the right thing to do is to follow the order and work to get it changed after, not completely ignore your boss and think your above their authority.

you've been talking to my boss again....

[emkay64]

Aww Eddie...we love your puffy tummy. The sequined halter tops were the distracting bit...

I think Eddo negged me... I cry

[emkay64]

I just tested this out. I can rep myself! Geeze I wonder who would be that pathetic....hmmmm...I wonderrrrrrr.

[eddo]

I think Eddo negged me... I cry

I most certainly did not!

Yes I did post that Joe.

 

There is a huge difference between not agreeing with someone and being hostile with someone just because they do not share your view point. I don't do the hostile part. Look how emkay constantly makes these discussions all about attacking me and completely ignores what is said.

 

Take my point about how the images shown were offered by the woman and her lawyer and even one of them was completely irresponsible to wear to a work environment (unless you worked at a strip club). It is very reasonable to believe that she wore a lot more stuff that was just as bad as the one.

 

Then there is also the point the woman refused a direct order from her bosses.

 

 

Point after point ignored, but personal attacks still made.

Well I'm glad!
