I agree!
At most, $100 (in wine train credit) for each of the "Sistahs" and a promise of training for the onboard service crew. A far cry from "$11 million" !
"Members of the Sistahs on the Reading Edge Book Club came to an "amicable settlement" with the Napa Valley Wine Train company on Thursday, six months after filing a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Northern California, their attorney Waukeen McCoy said.
"We hope that other businesses learn from this case and implement diversity and sensitivity training for employees," McCoy said in an email to Reuters.
McCoy did not disclose the terms of the settlement."
