BOSS OF THE WEEK _ Earlier in the week we talked about the best boss of

policy to 16 weeks for women, and 8 weeks for men.

...
The worst boss of the week? A pregnant woman who says her boss at a T-Mobile
Call Center in Nashville made her clock out every time she needed to use the
bathroom. Kristi Rifkin's doctor ordered her to drink more water, which
increased her trips to the bathroom. Her employer has a policy which allows two
15 minutes breaks and a 30 minute lunch. Rifkin ended up using vacation time to
use the bathroom and go to doctor's appointments. And to top it off, she was
fired a month and a half after returning to work.
