they kept mark hamill for the last two star wars movies. -- nm - mafic Jul 27, 08:56 1
- The last two Star Wars movies... as far as I'm concerned. -- nm - Mop (still 235lbs... on a good day) Jul 27, 09:19
I can only imagine. You fire someone for ugly, find out they have a mild case of Bell's Palsy or something. - TFox Jul 27, 08:52 17
- For starters, they wouldn't officially be fired for "being ugly". It would be "budget challenges in these tough economic times". -- nm - Ender Jul 27, 08:56 8
  - see, that's a different thing. i totally concede that this happens all the time. - TFox Jul 27, 08:57 7

      - unrelated: one of my roommates gets all pissy at job ads that say "permanent residents only" since she's on a temporary visa. - mafic Jul 27, 09:01 4
        
        Do they still have that requirement that any job you take has to end in 4 months? -- nm - Roger More Jul 27, 09:09 1
        
        they've upped it to six. -- nm - mafic Jul 27, 09:17
        
        your roomies are not very bright. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:02 1
        
        sort of. one of them isn't, one of them is extremely lacking in common sense, the other is quite smart though. -- nm - mafic Jul 27, 09:03

  - I'm guessing if the employer knew about the disability and went on an 'ugly firing rampage', this person would be protected? -- nm - ty97 Jul 27, 09:03 2

    - They just get banished to the stockroom. -- (link) - Ender Jul 27, 09:07
  - if he got fired for "ugly face"? i doubt it. -- nm - TFox Jul 27, 08:53 3

      - that's even crazier. not saying you are wrong, but let me defend that dude. i will win the fuck out of that case, law be damned. -- nm - TFox Jul 27, 08:58 1

- It's a major stretch of a hypothetical, I admit. -- nm - ty97 Jul 27, 09:04
