It's easy to conclude the company just did something really dumb they wouldn't have done had they called you or me, but we don't know that for a fact -- only surmise it from the terms of the settlement, and fact the EEOC took the case on (pretty good basis for surmising). I kind of wish the EEOC press releases included more facts. And this case would have really been an interesting read had it made it to the summary judgment or post-trial opinion stage, where the facts and positions would all be laid out in detail, and we could see just how this company got in such a pickle. Thanks for the comment, Peter.

I wish employers would simply take some time and pause before they take action like this. I wish they would pick up the phone and call a lawyer.
