>This was back in the early 90's so I forget the specifics. But I do remember the write up in the local newspaper touting something along the lines of "unfair labor practices". The employee's beef was that she was hired to do a job, then tested to see if she was capable to do the job she was already hired for.

That's not like a wrongful termination case (or whatever it's called). I'd say "performance" was not on this person's vocabulary.
I suppose fairness is on the eyes of the beholder (read: the judge).
It reminds me of that lady that filed the suit about foxpro's Y2K non-compliance. I wonder if she's finding any work with all the publicity that the suit got.
