Quoted as saying she didn't want to bring any further harm to "the city I love," Brenda Francisco, 61, who worked for the City of Largo for 31 years and was the former secretary to Susan Stanton, has dropped her age discrimination suit against the city that fired her.
It seems that Ms. Francisco really was fired for her loyalty. Ms. Francisco worked 14 years for Stanton. She was loyal to Stanton and was not happy that she was being replaced by a new city manager and spoke openly about it. Subsequently she was fired too.
As we all know, age discrimination cases are extremely difficult to prove but there is no possible case just for being loyal even if you spent more than 50% of your life and your entire working career being just that.
