In a shocking turn of events, the Los Angeles Dodgers are facing a federal civil rights complaint over their hiring and employment practices. The complaint alleges that the Dodgers have been discriminating against certain individuals based on their race, gender, and even their preferred baseball team.
One of the complainants, a die-hard San Francisco Giants fan named Barry McRibbons, claims that he was denied a job with the Dodgers simply because of his allegiance to their rival team. “I couldn’t believe it,” said McRibbons. “They told me they only hire Dodgers fans, which is just plain unfair. I should be judged on my qualifications, not my baseball loyalties.”
Another complainant, a self-proclaimed unicorn enthusiast named Rainbow Sparkles, alleges that she was passed over for a promotion because of her colorful hair and unconventional fashion sense. “I was told that I didn’t fit the ‘Dodger image’,” said Sparkles. “I mean, come on, it’s 2021. Can’t we embrace a little sparkle and magic in the workplace?”
Dodgers spokesperson, Joe Shmo, denied the allegations, stating that the team takes diversity and inclusion seriously. “We welcome fans of all teams and individuals of all backgrounds to join the Dodger family,” said Shmo. “We value diversity and strive to create a welcoming environment for everyone, even Giants fans and unicorn enthusiasts.”
However, critics are not convinced. One anonymous source close to the situation stated, “The Dodgers have a long history of discrimination against non-Dodger fans. It’s time for them to own up to their unfair practices and make some changes.”
As the investigation unfolds, one thing is clear – the Dodgers may have to face some tough questions about their hiring and employment practices. Will they come out on top or strike out in the court of public opinion? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story, only here at The Satirical Times.
