Would Obama come to my aid? Hell no. I'm not a muslim. Quoting: indiandave this^^^^^ umm... actually, they sue on behalf of Christians too.. Here is a case... In its suit (EEOC v. Medical Specialties, Inc. d/b/a Gaylord, Inc., Civil Action No. 3:11-cv-00464) filed in U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, Charlotte Division, the EEOC alleged that Evelyn Lockhart, an employee who is a Christian, was discharged after she refused to work on a religious holiday [link to www.eeoc.gov] Americans have the right to not work on a holiday if it is part of their religion. For a person who refuse to work around/with something that is against their beliefs or their culture, they shouldn't work at that establishment. Most employers, in my experience, have paperwork when hiring a person. Within the paperwork, it has a place where it mentions, something along the lines of (do we need to make any accommodations for you to work)... If anything, the person who is a potential employee should put what they wish to not work with/around, within means. Not defending the person of interest in the main subject of this thread, just stating my own opinion. ~*~ People need to share stories, sources, facts, etc. first before others start to debunk what is being shared. Keep an open mind & open eye or coward with your sleepy stubbornness. ~*~ |

ALBION User ID: 40749522 United Kingdom 06/03/2013 12:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "Considering the sheer number of things that Islam bans (pork, alcohol, movies, music, chess, kites, etc…) a Muslim driver who refuses to drive a truck containing them is mostly useless. Quoting: davvi When Muslim taxi drivers refused to drive passengers with seeing eye dogs or who carried bottles of alcohol, there was an uproar. But now Obama Inc. is using to claim that Muslim discrimination is a civil right that employers must accommodate. Star Transport, Inc., a trucking company based in Morton, Ill., violated federal law by failing to accommodate two employees because of their religion, Islam, and discharging them, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit filed today. The lawsuit alleged that Star Transport refused to provide two employees with an accommodation of their religious beliefs when it terminated their employment because they refused to deliver alcohol. A trucking company may be obligated to accommodate religious observance by providing time off for holidays or prayers. It is not obligated to excuse employees from doing their actual job. And delivering alcohol is part of what being a truck driver means. If it’s against your religion, find a job that doesn’t involve delivering large quantities of foods and beverages. In fact there is no actual prohibition that bars Muslims from driving a truck full of alcohol. There are prohibitions on drinking alcohol. Every Muslim corner store I have ever seen sells alcohol, alongside smuggled cigarettes and lottery tickets. Many Muslim countries allow the sale of alcohol. [link to frontpagemag.com] So this scum wants to live in a free society and then they demand that the free society become less free to accommodate them? Do we feel more free or less free with a government who is all about putting a 7th century ideology ahead of our own? A black persons religion states that they never work, never invent anything and never talk or walk properly. So, can a black person sue any employer that dares to offer them a job, as this would contravene their religious dogma as stated above? Genuine question. :amazing: |

User ID: 37874254 Canada 06/03/2013 12:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What if it was a fundamentalist Christian refusing to drive a truck load of porn and sex toys? Quoting: Fred 40805524 What does fundamentalism have to do with it? No Christian should even consider hauling such a load, but I'd bet most "christians" little "c", WOULD. They are christians in name only. The muslims see the hypocrisy of jews and christians, and KNOW, in this respect at least, they are on higher ground. Any TRUE Christian would refuse to haul such a load, and accept his termination in Christ' name, and REJOICE, for he would gain great reward in Heaven, so says Jesus Christ. Porn and sex toys are not against the law. Truck drivers need to haul what they are told to haul, as long as it isn't against the law. What about the person who is a vegan? Should he not haul meat? What about the person who is against religion of any kind? Should he be able to refuse to haul religious crap? A truck driver is there to haul a load from point A to point B, not to get political about what he is hauling. If they can't do the job they are hired to do, then find another job that they can do, without putting all the restrictions on the job. It's just ridiculous. And give me a break on the f***ing Christian shit, will you? You self righteous people make me sick. |

There were several candidates and among them was striking-looking black woman who I thought had the job in the bag depending strictly on "looks" until she opened her mouth. She was ghetto central, and I thought what a shame that she would be the first person a customer would see and hear. She would be the voice on the phone that a customer would hear and as such her mouth disqualified her... But we are talking about nonsense here their "religion" won't even allow them to apply for work. |
