LONDON: The deputy head of a large British school was forced to sit in a chair that made flatulent noises every time she moved, an employment tribunal has heard.
Sue Storer, 48, claims her requests for a new chair were repeatedly ignored and she was "victimised, harassed and bullied" because she was a woman.
She has resigned from her Ģ48,000-a-year ($116,700) post at Bedminster Down Secondary School in Bristol and is claiming more than pound stg. 1 million, based on lost earnings and loss of pension, against Bristol City Council for constructive dismissal and sex discrimination.
She said her "farting chair" was a regular joke. "It was very embarrassing to sit on," she said.
