Frenchman Sues Former Company For Being ‘Too Boring’

The French have been protesting unfair labor standards a lot lately, but this is not one of those cases. Frédéric Desnard of Paris is demanding more than $400,000 from his former employer, a perfume enterprise, as compensation for the four years of boredom they caused. “I was ashamed to be paid to do nothing,” Desnard said. Allegedly he did nothing for four years, and was compensated $360,000 for his efforts, but the money didn’t “fulfill” him. We’re still not sure what the problem is.
