I agree. You have to look the part or you aren't cast in the role. So saying, "Sorry, your looks are not what we're looking for," is like a casting director saying, "We're looking for someone (taller, shorter, fatter, thinner, lighter, darker, whatever-er)." there's nothing wrong there at all. So I tke back what I said about HR.

Also, if I'm reading this right... He rehearsed for both parade and "atmospheric" but was only actually used for parade... So basically, he's suing over losing a job he "trained for" but never actually started.

And, on top of that, he was hired "seasonal". I don't know about Walt Disney World, but where I work "seasonal" means you can be let go at any time depending upon the needs of the business.

It also says he was "singled out to perform menial tasks for his supervisor." I take that to mean that they went out of their way to find other work for this man. It sounds like they accomodated him as well as they possibly could... and now he's suing.

I was willing to consider the suit potentially valid, but after reading this, No! This sounds like Sikh American Legal Defence and Education Fund is pulling a publicity stunt. I guess it's working. I ran it...
