Somalis in the workplace. And many of them asked to be on the shift that conflicts with their praying.

The idiosy continues. Wait till we see the next chapter in the ongoing saga of angry muslims handling our food.

No praying during shift hours. They can repent later.

Mohamed Rage, chairman of the Omaha Somali-American Community Organization, said Swift had fired at least two dozen workers for praying since May.

Not fired for praying, but for waliking off the line without permission. I suppose white guys get to cause unscheduled shutdowns whenever they want?

Mohamed Rage??

That would be their ancestral hell hole of Somalia. What gets me is that they ASKED to be on the shift that conflicts with their prayer schedule. What ever happened to “When in Rome....”?

Obviously OUR country is unfriendly & hostile to muslims. They should really show us and leave.

I have to respond to this the way I responded to the early post about the transsexual who was complaining about being teased.

Keep your wierd crap out of the workplace and stop bothering people.

Quite frankly, I am sick and tired of being religiously discriminated myself. Every employer that I have worked for won't let me meditate.

I belong to the church of one. About two times a day, I am struck by the need to lay down on a mat, cover myself with a blanket, close my eyes, slow my breathing and meditate for an hour.

Is anyone looking for a guy that is willing to work 6 hours and get paid for 8?
