While reviewing pre-employment reports as part of her job, Amanda Jones, claimant, read a report in which an applicant admitted commenting to an employee at a prior job that "making love to you is like making love to the Grand Canyon." Later, at a meeting convened by her supervisor, the supervisor read the quote and said he didn't understand it. A male subordinate said he would explain it to him later, and both chuckled. The claimant alleges that nearly every action after the incident constituted retaliation for her complaint, including a lateral transfer. Discuss whether the court will agree and explain the factors that the court takes into consideration.
