A German man fired for running up a €10,000 bill surfing porn at work claims he was treated unfairly because his employers failed to take into account his addiction to Net porn before giving him the boot.

The unnamed former civil servant claims unfair dismissal against the German state of Lower Saxony.

"I am an addict and as such am unaccountable for my actions," he told the court yesterday. "I need therapy and understanding, not dismissal from my job."

The case continues. ®

He should have gotten a job in the biz...

I know when I worked for Lens and heard from others that have worked for others, that you could get fired only if you were surfing anything other than porn... :o

More power to him.

If he wins it will mean all his fellow employees can do the same. Must have a sales push to German sites. :rokk:
