As a preface, you are correct: If there's an oddball story and it involves boobs, then it probably will find its way to this blog. With that behind us, what a weird story from Orlando, where a behavioral health organization employee named Amy-Erin Blakely (pictured on right) has filed a lawsuit against her employer, The Devereux Foundation, which allegedly canned her because of her cans -- they were allegedly too large! (Link to full story at bottom).
And Blakely's employer had better watch out, because Blakely has enlisted powerhouse "high profile case" attorney Gloria Allred to represent her. The lawsuit filed by Blakely and Allred this week includes various DD-Size allegations which center around Blakely's rack and which, if true, make the company's management team look like a real bunch of slimeballs:
-Blakely accuses Devereux's managers of "humiliating" her by "focusing on my breasts as opposed to my performance on the job." (Perhaps they just suffered from double vision?)
-Blakely accuses Devereux's managers of "humiliating" her by "focusing on my breasts as opposed to my performance on the job." (Perhaps they just suffered from double vision?)
-She says one of the managers "talked about how large my breasts were and that I needed to 'hide' them" around the workplace. ("Damn pesky distractions," I guess was the thought process).
-She says her managers accused her of being "too sensual" for the workplace and wouldn't promote her because of her "sensuality." (What did they want her to do, anyway? Put on a burka?)
Devereux CEO Robert Krieder, who would probably be best advised to keep his mouth shut, is nevertheless firing back at Blakely and her various busty allegations, denouncing them as "purposefully inflammatory, and either spurious or twisted in content and context." Yeah, tell it to the jury, pal. And have fun with Allred. Maybe you can try and "hide" from her, which might actually be your best course of action.
