Scores of former workers at the company that owns popular jewelry stores such as Zales, Kay Jewelers and Jared’s Galleria, say managers promoted a culture of sexual harassment and discrimination, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post.

About 250 women and men who worked for Sterling complained in sworn statements that female employees were groped and encouraged to have sex with their bosses to keep their jobs throughout the 1990s and 2000s, the newspaper reported.

It allegedly happened over 20 years ago.

Women seem most upset about sexuality in the workplace when they are past the age when it would be of any benefit to THEM.

It was okay when Bill Clinton (as governor and president) repeatedly did it and when he lied about it in a court proceeding about one such incident. It was okay when he and his wife intimidated witnesses with threats of violence and libelous "nuts and sluts" smears in the media.

Shades of the sexual harassment campaign against Trump.

Who is this Mark Light, ceo of Sterling Jewelry in Ohio? Did he do anything to cross the progressives or Hillary in particular? Is this a life disruption campaign against him? I’m going to do a quick search to see.

This organized effort against this company started in 2008. Hillary or Obama may have a grudge.

I couldn’t discount that scenario but my wife works for Sterling and they seem to be bent on committing suicide for the past year or two.
A few key executives were forced into retirement and a new regime has taken over. They are morons who are working harder at destroying the machinery, in the name of ‘modern management’ theory than in actually building the business and doing what they’re IN business to do...

I’ve seen it all before with companies that I’ve worked for. They’ll be gone soon. Their stock is looking like the shuttle Challenger....
