Hotness is a valid reason for firing

Good news for those of us who aren't exactly oil paintings, and feel bad about our appearance compared to attractive co-workers; Iowa's High Court says that very attractiveness can be grounds for termination:

The court ruled 7-0 that bosses can fire employees they see as an "irresistible attraction," even if the employees have not engaged in flirtatious behavior or otherwise done anything wrong. Such firings may be unfair, but they are not unlawful discrimination under the Iowa Civil Rights Act because they are motivated by feelings and emotions, not gender

The author notes that the Iowa High Court is all-male, which perhaps tells us something about the judges' assessment of their own self-control.

Just to balance out the risks, however, it appears that excessive flatulence can also put your job at risk.
