Infliction Of Emotional Distress Claim

< Prev
Next >
Frustrated by her employer's constant demands for coffee and foot massages, Jennifer decides to sue for the infliction of emotional distress. Is she likely to have a valid claim?
ANo, because although the employer's requests are disagreeable, they do not inherently cause severe emotional distress, which she must demonstrate to prevail.
BYes, because it is inherently stressful to interrupt professional duties to perform personal favors for individuals in positions of authority.
CYes, because Jennifer should not be subjected to tasks that demonstrate a lack of personal respect from her employer.
DNo, because Jennifer never explicitly asked him to stop, allowing for the argument that she did not object to performing the favors.
