WAKE UP, LITTLE SUSIE, WAKE UP

In a recent case out of Utahs federal district court, Susan Robinson claimed that her employer, Sunroc Corp., discriminated against her based on her sex, in violation of Title VII. The facts of the case, however, paint a picture of an employer who appropriately responded to Robinsons complaints, and made hiring and firing decisions based upon legitimate business reasons untainted by discrimination. Thus, although Title VII gives individuals the right to sue employers for discrimination, when one reads the courts decision denying all of her claims, one wonders why someone did not tell Robinson to wake up, face the facts, and not waste her and Sunrocs time and money on a fruitless lawsuit. The following is written with apologies to Simon & Garfunkel, the Beatles, Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, and Madonna.
