Timeline to an MDV


9/11

11/01 Transportation Security Administration created as part of the Dept. of Transportation

03/03 TSA moved to new Department of Homeland Security

10/03 Betty Younis terminated by TSA

07/04 Younis files retaliation lawsuit under Title VII against TSA in W.D. of Kentucky

01/06 Federal jury awards fired TSA employee $1.15 million

According to the AP report, Younis complained about not receiving the same pay as a male employee and was then isolated with no responsibilites for 11 weeks before she was terminated. Her lawyer David Leightty -- Younis "saw this as a victory for the little person."

Just a little over 4 years after inception to your first MDV -- welcome to the real world of being an employer.
