“Public Urination Scandal: Fired Tech Exec Seeks $1.5 Million in Lawsuit Against Company—What Really Happened?”
Becker went to the bathroom five times during the business meal. When he arrived back at his hotel, he only made it “as far as the hotel vestibule, a deserted area located on a different floor from the lobby,” the lawsuit mentions.
“At that point, embarrassed, panicked, and faced with an emergency, Becker had no choice but to discreetly urinate on the ground behind a column in the vestibule.”

A worker at the Westin New York told The Post that the hotel has no space known as the “vestibule.” The only public spaces with columns are the first-floor entrance or the concierge desk on the second floor. Additionally, the lobby has bathrooms.
According to the lawsuit, the 66-year-old joined the Chinese multinational as a Global Account Sales Executive in 2022. His work led to a 200% growth in business and helped the company win several awards, including a trip to Costa Rica.
Becker said that Lenovo understood that his behavior was caused by his disability and alluded to instances where the company dealt with “far worse conduct,” like when a drunk Lenovo employee stuffed a colleague inside a toy vending machine in 2021.
