Virginia dock worker Sonya Tillett-Bond is accusing her union of discrimination.
She claims she's being punished because she relieved herself outdoors at the marine terminal in Portsmouth.
Tillett-Bond says male workers pee outside and nothing happens to them.
The suit charges the International Longshoreman's Association is refusing to hire her.
Tillett-Bond wants $300,000 in damages.
A jury was seated yesterday in a Norfolk federal court to hear the urination litigation.
