Plaintiff Carla D. Frizzell appeals the District Courts judgment after a bench trial in favor of Defendant Southwest Motor Freight ("Southwest") on plaintiffs claims under the Family and Medical Leave Act (the "FMLA"), 29 U.S.C. §§ 2601-2654, and the provisions of the Tennessee Human Rights Act (the "THRA"), Tenn.
