"BAREFOOT AND PREGNANT"
 
 
The Seventh Circuit writes: "the parties appear to have simply collected the sum total of all the unpleasant events in Volovsek's work history since 1992, dumped them in the legal mixing bowl of this lawsuit, set the Title VII-blender to puree and poured the resulting blob on the court." One "barefoot and pregnant" comment stood out because it was made around the time Volovsek was denied a promotion. Her failure to promote claim is therefore good enough to be presented to a jury. Her harassment claim is dismissed because Volovsek failed to show harm.
