Ex-Apprentice winner loses sugar job case

So, Stella has lost the court case after suing lord sugar for paying her £100,000 a year and using her as an overpaid lacky:O

What an ungrateful mare, I would clean toilets 15 hours a day for that salary!

Let someone have the job who will appreciate it not moan because they aren't doing enough....

I'm glad she lost, it was a nonsensical claim

Well for MONEY!

Lord Sugar said: ''The allegations were without substance,and I believe this case was brought with one intention in mind - the presumption that I would not attend the tribunal, that I would not testify and that I would settle out of court, sending Ms English on her way with a tidy settlement. I'm afraid she underestimated me and her reputation is now in tatters.''

Yes, she has lost any chance of a high flying career in this country I would have thought.

And it is a victory for the law against the claim culture.

she was given a desk and a phone but no specific duties during a four-month probationary period.

She said her boss looked at her with "contempt" on her first day and said: "There is no job."

At that salary, I would have stuck it out for the four months, just to see where it went

Thank's, but I don't believe her.

'No specific duties' Yes please, and thank you LORD.

'looked at her with contempt'? Might have looked at her with approval ;-).

'There is no job'.....:-D.....;-).
