Citibank let her go last August and told her she was too 'distracting' and 'upsetting' to the male managers. She apparently was forbidden from wearing anything clingy or revealing. Ms. Lorenzana claims she wore appropriate clothing.
Of course she is suing. Her lawyer claims she was fired only because her bosses couldn't keep their libidos in check.
I suspect Ms. Lorenzana pushed the envelope, but I'm sure she'll win her lawsuit. Question, though: wouldn't someone who looks like this ATTRACT business?

Our friend Skippy from North of the Border has a similar take: http://skippy-posts.blogspot.com/2010/06/hey-whaddya-say-we-destroy-citibank.html
I happen to have a position open that Ms. Lorenzana could fill.
In the article, she is called "the yummy mummy."
The comments section below the article are great, too.
I love the Post.
CW, don't drag us down to your level. I hope Kitten slaps the Hell right outta you!
No really--I'm hiring an assistant...got a line on a supergenius recent college grad for whom I ought to be working (and probably will someday), but if that doesn't work out, well, Ms. Lorenzana appears qualified.
Anybody got her forwarding address? I want to write her a dirty letter.
Yes:
Ms. Debrahlee Lorenzana
Assistant to the Director
