Since they did have the choice to switch jobs, I think the most they should be able to claim is councelling fees.

One possibility is that the employees are looking for easy money. Maybe they think it&#x27;ll be easy to shock the jury into ruling in their favor.<p>I wonder if it makes sense to hire pedophiles to do this job. Especially if this lawsuit holds, pedophiles wouldn&#x27;t be able to make similar claims. And you already need security measures to prevent them from stealing customer emails and such.<p>The other solution is to push more of this work onto a computer program, but no matter how well that works they&#x27;d probably want to have a human check it before sending customer data to the FBI.<p>At the very least, if it&#x27;s a real problem they should probably screen people for having thick skins and make them sign a waiver or something.

yep, seen the first pic, if the job was so disgusting he should pop up and asking for a relocation or just quit and search for something else. anyway ... the opportunity of a millionaire lawsuit to Microsoft is always appealing, apparently
