Whoa… miscalculated… thought they were suing for $1m…
So wait… they want $100m in compensatory damages? That’s $9.1m per person!!!
Lets say these people made $15/hr… that’s $31k/year… to justify a $9.1m payout means they are saying they planned to work at the company for 293 years.
NOW THAT’S DEDICATION! How could you fire an employee like that?!?
I live and work in the greater Phila. area. Trust me, anything they were doing on the job, they were overpaid and under criticized. For years ARamark has had the market cornered here in Phila. for food services and they suck! 99% of their employees are black. Hmmmmm, don’t see any WHITE lawsuits. I’m betting that Compass actually made these people WORK and when they didn’t they were fired, simple as that. But, as we all know, they will prevail, Compass will settle and whites will once again be trampled by their “oppressed” couterparts.
Unless you have inside information, there’s no way to know the merit of the suit, what exactly happened, etc. For all we know these 11 people were some of the worst employees ever, maybe a couple of them just stopped coming to work, there might be stacks of documentation to attest to that – we don’t know.
Seems to me, Rosie, that you’re little more than a race baiter hoping to get someone to start a racist conversation… did you notice it didn’t happen?

I never discriminate against the lazy. I fire all of them. When you lose your job within 6 months, something tells me you weren’t doing your job. If all you know is how to get a handout without having to work, no wonder they were fired. Time to take over Cuba and send all of our people who are too lazy to work over there. I am tired of supporting other people. Get a job, do something productive besides popping out more crotch fruit to increase your govt handout.
Worked in an office where the job applications of African Americans were thrown out in the trash as soon as the applicant left the interview. That stopped when one very capable young woman called back to see how she did and it soon became obvious they could not find her application. The EEOC was called in and she ended up getting the job. Did a terrific job, too, lovely young lady.
Worked for a creep who would never hire a
“n—–.”
Worked for another creep who demanded my African American co-worker take speech lessons due to her rural Southern dialect. EEOC called in again!!!
Its funny. I’m up there in years-been in the business since ’81 and other than black rappers and the remnants of the KKK, you never hear the “n” word said by anyone these days. Its a toxic word. I am simply amazed that you would say that anyone in todays workforce is willing to risk demotion or even firing for the use of that word. No one is that powerful or bold. I just don’t believe you.
these entitlement whores don’t even deserve $1. Don’t like your job, quit and get another one. This is simply a bogus, extortionist lawsuit by people who want free money without having to work for it.
Mary, your last sentence describes the democrat Utopia!. If just half of the welfare recipients could realize that they are modern day slaves to the democrats, then we could actually turn our society around. Isn’t public housing akin to modern day slave quarters. Only now, the slaves only have to vote for their masters instead of actually doing any work for them.
Sure… $1m in compensatory damages is fair… $90,909/person. Yep… caffeteria caterers are pretty high paid.
$1m extra in punative damages to teach the company a lesson – should toss in some cultural sensitivity training requirements too.
Just think… these people were forced to work up to 8 MONTHS in these terrible conditions.
Oh wait… let me adjust the $90k amount since after the laywers get their share each plantiff will probably end up with $5.00.

no one should be discriminated against
this makes me very sad :(
See you racist yokels in 2010 and 2012! You can embarass yourselves all you want but don’t embarass the nation (again).
The Grand Non-Wizard
So, your omniscience (that means you know everything) tells you that these dopes are telling the unvarnished truth?
Confederate flag? The Confederates were all Democrats, the Great Emancipator, not to mention Martin L. King, was a Republican.
Sarah Palin (if that’s who you mean) never uttered a racist word for you to accuse her with, so you’re just a slanderer.
Typical Obamunist.
Missed you! You go, girl!! PS: I hope they get screwed like they are trying to screw their employer.

Who exactly are you attacking anyway?

Get your facts straight, observer.
Rosie, so they let you out the psychiatric hospital? Hope you remember to take your meds. Really, we did NOT miss you.

The N word is thrown around like crazy still!
It’s sick.
