[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  Thanks for all the replies.  I think I will fly her out to stay with me for a while to calm down.

She is really upset about the "face doesn't fit" comment because she suffers from severe acne (just started Accutane recently), and is very self-conscious about it.  She seems to think that they fired her literally because of her face.  She once overheard the two women who were unkind to her talking about her skin, and now she's convinced that she was fired because she is "too ugly" and "no one wants to look at a face like mine."  It is probably good that I am in a different country because I would like to go find her supervisor and slap him.  The poor kid.  I wish they had just told her a reason, or at least not said anything about a "face" at all.[/quote]

I find that comment to be deeply, deeply disturbing and [b]potentially discriminatory[b].[/b]  Consult an employment lawyer.  Not sure what the effect of whatever it is that she signed would be, though.  Lawyer up.[/quote]

Having bad skin or being ugly does not put you in a protect class. [/quote]
