Don't know if this has been done already* but:
On the local news last night.
A recruitment consultant went to the Job Centre in Thetford with an advert for a hard working and reliable person to fill a post at the local hospital. She was told the advert had to be re-worded because it would discriminate against unreliable people!
Sense prevailed in the end and she was allowed to post the advert as penned but wtf is this country coming to?
* If so it is a slowjo FAIL! ;o)
I think you'll find this country has always had thick people in it mate.
I bet its not true as well.
is it ok to discriminate against people who don't "work hard" then?
Surely not.

That being said however, it was just some jobsworth from the job centre as the equality and human rights commission basically said don't be ridiculous when they were asked to comment.
