Status: offline 		I can say in all honesty that yes, I have. I was fired from a job when I was pregnant with my last child because as the GM said "he didn't want no fat, preggers cow at HIS front desk, no matter how good she looked". This was when I was still fairly early on in the pregnancy and went out and spent a fortune on quality maternity clothes for the office. The office manager just told me quietly that it would "be best in my current condition that I go home and get some rest for a while".
 
All this after being there 6 weeks and having departments fight for my help as I was the best help they'd gotten in years.   Since then, I have no sympathy for that company whatsoever...

Status: offline 		absolutely. I am always the top producer wherever I work and still get sexist treatment. no matter what we think, it is still a man's world when it comes to business. we can shout about harassment more, and companies are more aware of possible litigation, but it is very difficult to prove.
