Discrimination occurs when an employer treats similarly situated employees
differently based on one or more of the protected characteristics

Here, the employer is discriminating against Sue by assigning her different
duties from the other managers based on her sex and by referring to her using
the derogatory knick-name, "Babe." Sue has a discrimination claim
based on sex.
