Not sure if you ladies remember or not, but MIL used to be one those department store interior decorators (the people that come out to measure and recommend blinds, drapes, etc). She got canned, just like she does from all her jobs, but since they fired her after a big public shouting match she had with a black co-worker, she actually filed a suit for wrongful termination. After 2 years of lawyers fees and court dates, she got a verdict last week. The judge ruled that her employer was indeed guilty of reverse discrimination. However, since they were looking for a reason to fire her anyway, the judge ruled that MIL was entitled to $1 in damages. 2 years of a lawsuit, ONE freaking dollar. LMAO! Yet another reason that MIL = moron. $1 isn't worth 15 minutes of my time, much less 2 years of meetings with an attorney and showing up in court.
