Job ad banned for wanting "hard-working" people
English businesswoman Beryl King wanted to apply for "warehouse packers who must be hard-working and reliable" but the Southhampton jobcenter nixed the ad, finding it discriminated against lazy people.
Beryl, 57, told the Daily Mirror: "I couldn't believe my ears. Has our world gone mad?"
Affirmative!
PS: This story is rather old, but I missed it while it was new, and it's well worth passing on.
