I find it interesting that the company where the abuse supposedly occurred, Conn-X, is based in Florida.  They sue the other company, Administaff, based in Texas.  Hartford, Connecticut, where the Conn-X branch office was located, is no stranger to Jews, since it is relatively close to NYC.  It all sounds odd to me.

Two Jewish brothers won a $115,000 settlement from a Texas-based human resources firm after alleging that they endured religious-based harassment - including verbal and physical abuse - while they worked at an office in Harford County, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said Wednesday.

Brothers Scott and Joseph Jacobson detailed several complaints, including being called "dirty Jew," "dumb Jew," "stupid Jew" and other anti-Semitic slurs by managers and co-workers while working at an office for Conn-X LLC, a cable TV service provider in Edgewood.

Scott Jacobson also said in court papers that his work vehicle was defaced with a swastika symbol, and that he was thrown into a trash bin, tied to a fence and shot at with BBs.

The brothers, who could not be located for comment, said in court papers they complained to Conn-X and Administaff Inc., a Texas-based company that oversaw human resources at Conn-X. But they said the companies didn't take action to correct a "hostile work environment," according to court documents. They first reported their complaints in September 2008, but the harassment had been occurring since 2005, the EEOC said.

According to a settlement reached this week, Administaff denied that it violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination against employees based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

In a statement Wednesday, Administaff officials said the brothers never complained to them, but the company launched an investigation as soon as it learned of their allegations.

"When Administaff first learned about the complaint of religious discrimination, it immediately began an investigation," wrote Jason Cutbirth, an Administaff spokesman. "Soon after learning of these allegations, Administaff ended its co-employer relationship with Conn-X."

Cutbirth said the company settled the case for an amount that was "far less" than the cost of continued litigation.

The brothers' case against Conn-X remains open. Officials with Conn-X could not be reached for comment.

WASHINGTON (JTA) -- A nationwide staffing company settled a lawsuit filed on behalf of two Jewish employees who were subjected to religious discrimination.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission had sued Texas-based Administaff, Inc., which provides human resource teams for small- to medium-sized companies, and Conn-X, a Florida-based cable service provider, after brothers Scott and Joey Jacobson were harassed for approximately two years at the Conn-X office in Edgewood, Md.

Administaff will pay the brothers $115,000 for religious discrimination, and will abstain from engaging in harassment on a religious bias and from retaliating against employees who report such harassment. Administaff also agreed to revise its policy against harassment and retaliation, and provide training for its managers on anti-discrimination laws.

The Jacobsons were called "dirty Jew" and "dumb Jew," and were subjected to other anti-Semitic comments beginning in 2005. Scott Jacobson had his work vehicle defaced with a swastika and was forced into a trash bin for the amusement of managers watching on work surveillance cameras, calling it "throw the Jew in the Dumpster."

Attempts to reach a voluntary settlement fell through, leading to the EEOC lawsuit. The suit against Conn-X remains unresolved.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits religious harassment.

It is probably a Goyim owned business with a Jew doing this to Jew.  Well, they need a Pontius Pilate at this point since they have suffered so much on the "BB Gun" shooting "Cross". They are going to make a "Last Testament" style mini-series for the over Jew'd and Jew corrupted HBO... maybe with Jew Steven Spielberg directing with Mel Gibson playing the "Boss" with the BB gun... "stupid jews" do exist...  :lol:

It's all about the money and getting another settlement...
After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan
