I guess being late four or five times a month to a time clock type job is okay. It's racist to expect blacks to be on time, or something.
It’s slightly more likely that you’ve received a highly selective version of the facts and evidence.
Being that tardy alone is grounds for termination at many jobs.
You have no curiosity about why a jury of ordinary Americans would be so pissed off at the Defendant that they awarded $10 million in punitives, of course.
Enlighten me genius
The retaliation allegedly came in the form of being cited for lateness. Europe didn't deny she came in late, but noted that other workers frequently did the same and weren't reprimanded. Her lawsuit claimed she "was never late for a training appointment with a client, never kept a client waiting, and regularly stayed an hour or more past the end of her shift regardless of what time she had arrived."
The man who allegedly made the sexist and racist comments was among those who "regularly arrived at work well after their official start-times without consequence." The lawsuit also claimed that the employee "often left work early without repercussion."
That prompted Europe to believe she "was being singled out for selective enforcement of time and attendance policies in retaliation for having engaged in legally protected activities," the lawsuit claimed.
Just months after she complained about the club's toxic work environment, Equinox fired her, citing her lateness as its reason, the claim says.
The trial included "swipe-in data" from other Equinox workers that showed that other managers had worse time and attendance records than Europe, although she was the only worker who was disciplined, her attorney stated.
In addition to the $10 million in punitive damages, the jury awarded Europe $1.25 million in compensatory damages and $16,000 in economic damages representing back pay.
Incidentally, Equinox was also found to have engaged in spoilation of evidence.
Allegedly. Her fucking name is Europe??? Why not Chanel or Gucci? The baby momma's name was allegedly Shanequa. Allegedly, she won't get paid shit.
