I Believe You’re Carrying The Spawn of Satan … So You’re Fired
Call me shallow, dumb, ignorant, whatever…but I imagine a boss hates hearing: “I have amazing news: I’m pregnant!”
Doctors appointments, maternity leave, baby’s sick, etc. etc. etc.
Alright, I’m totally belittling the miracle of life, but you have to admit it would probably tick off a manager. But turn a manager crazy? That’s a whole different story:
A woman was fired last year by an Omaha homebuilder because the company’s CEO believed her unborn child carried “negative energy,” according to a federal lawsuit.
Did her boss think this demon was inside of her? If so, that's a little more understandable.
Key word: Lawsuit. Is her boss a moron? Did this clown think she would buy that lame excuse for termination? According to the story, Jammie Harms, 34, of Lincoln, Neb., was the executive assistant to John Smith (parents went really outside the box).
According to the lawsuit, several decision makers at the company believe in intuitive spirituality and incoporate reincarnation and energy fields into the business. If that’s not a reason to leave a company, I’m not sure what is. Maybe Wiccan Wednesdays is a better reason?
Apparently Smith had several consults with a psychic and cited that she had gained “15 to 20 pounds” — I really wish this was all made up.
Moral of the story? It sounds like employment at Hearthstone Homebuilders in Omaha might be one of the biggest occupational hazards out there.
