One specific case? How about this one:

Or these eleven:

Or these five:

Those are just a few of the public cases I found in a couple of minutes on Google.

And let’s not forget that there are good reasons why people choose not to go public in such situations and that, in most cases, where discrimination is involved, the employer won’t be openly giving the reason.

It happens.

Maybe it never happened right under your nose, but it happens.
