Another ridiculous situation stemmed from an employer asking an employee to leave their job because he’s “just too good looking”. In New Malden England, it appears that the British headmaster has a stiff upper lip when it comes to the physical attributes of the common man.

I purposely have not weighed in on the labour force cut backs of 30,000+ employees, of which most will be white collar, announced last week by Ford.
