No Fatties, Oldies or Mingers at Prada, Please.

Telegraph article

Prada (Japan) tells manager to lose the old, fat and ugly... Whereas Primark are happy to continue as they are.

I'm stuffed on all 3 counts

It's all about the sales targets. No-one wants to see ugly staff, do they?

I note that Ms. Bovrisse declines to have her photograph in the article. Presumably because she is a Kangarilla Bushpig.

There is more to that than meets the eye....

There is no discrimination law in Japan so employers can specify age/sex of employees they want. OTOH it is very difficult to get rid of someone once they are employed.

This court case is purely to get her her years salary as compensation.
