Read it below ;

Thank you for your email and explanation.
You did not answer me regarding wearing very short skirts and sexy top?
Also entertaining customer could be outside the showroom as well.
What if a customer ask you to go home with him?


Why they don't mention it first if I wear a short skirt and sexy top?
I feel that it's so strange for me.
I wonder that it's just culture or other company is same way like that.

I felt so stressful with that message.

Actually I would like contact Hr manager.
But they didn't show telephone number in the web page.

its so comprehensive that i didnt read it but i got the point of it and yea it is shocking this person can easy be removed from his position if in fact he was the one who said such things.

in any case he would fall under the harrasment laws and would be punished severly.

an employer is an employee . Think about that.

An employer is not some magical being. This whole thing could be a fake way for someone to have fun with people lookin for jobs. :twisted:
