You might as well start discussion with your lawyer if you’re not having fun with your job presently. A man just made history as the first to get paid after suing his former employer over boring job. Sounds weird but it happened.

Frederic Desnard, who worked as a manager at a Parisian perfumery until 2015, sued his former employer because his job was so boring that it made him depressed and forced him to quit. He recently won the trial and a $45,000 (about N20 million) compensation.

The story began back in 2016, when Frederic Desnard made international news headlines for suing French perfumery Interparfum for $400,000 for making him work a boring job that at one point made him suffer an epileptic fit and left him feeling depressed. He also claimed that the company signed him off work for several months, and later used his prolonged absence as an excuse to fire him in 2014. Last week, after four years of litigation, 48-year-old Desnard won his case, and a compensation of $45,000

Paris’s appeals court ruled that Frederic Desnard suffered from “bore out”, which is technically the opposite of burnout, where an employee is overworked. The former manager’s lawyer claimed that the complete lack of stimulation at work had left the man feeling “destroyed” and “ashamed”, even triggering an epileptic fit when he was driving.

This is an entirely different clime. Employers rule here.
Go to the banks and see fully intimidated young Nigerians wasting away.

Since the day I read about an African student schooling in USA, say he will sue his president for blocking him on Twitter, I realise the power those in the western world wield.
