- holding that plaintiff was entitled to discontinue his job search, where he had engaged in a yearlong job search following his termination, which proved futile, and thereafter accepted a lower-paying steady job with regular wages
- “[A] Title VII plaintiff cannot remain idle after an unlawful discharge and receive back pay for that period where he was not actively seeking employment.”
