They Sued Her Over a Blue Shirt 😳

Shawn Ryan Show

The speaker describes a lawsuit filed against a woman for wearing a blue shirt on her last day, based on a comment suggesting she wear blue if she was under an NDA. The speaker defended her publicly and was subsequently sued for approximately one million dollars for that defense.

Summary

According to the speaker, a woman was sued over wearing a blue shirt during an announcement on her last day of employment. The lawsuit was apparently based on circumstantial evidence: someone in the comments had previously suggested that if the woman (Brett) was under a non-disclosure agreement, she should wear a blue shirt as a signal. The employer extrapolated from this comment that her choice to wear a blue shirt was intentional communication about being under an NDA. The speaker provides context that the employer has a pattern of controlling behavior, including targeting the woman's best friend Reagan as a form of psychological torture. The speaker mentions that the employer offered Reagan more money than he had ever paid Brett, apparently as a form of harassment or manipulation. When the speaker publicly defended the woman against this lawsuit, they were themselves sued. The speaker indicates the damages sought against them for their public defense were approximately one million dollars.
