So, if a Christian refuses to work at McDonald’s on Sundays citing religious ‘beliefs’ and gets fired, do they get 50K too? This Muslim ass-kissing is really getting out of hand. And to think, 9/11/01 was a just a little more than 12 years ago. Unfrickin’ real!
Right, and I thought that a fast food company could set hygiene or grooming standards.
If you don't like it...LEAVE.
We're not talking about a Muslim who was refused service.
This guy was on the clock.
Showing you how old I am, when I worked at Taco Bell in the early 80s, the "regulations" included:
For men: always wear the paper (overseas) cap.
Hair must be trimmed neatly. If it extends to the neck area, a hair net must be worn.
No facial hair, except for a groomed moustache, that cannot extend past the lip margin.
Sideburns allowed, but they cannot go beyond the lobe of the ear.
No earrings. At all.
The uniform must be clean.
For women:
You may wear your hair, up, but tied in a kerchief cap.
No more than one stud earring per ear while on duty.
Uniform must be clean.
I remember going into a Taco Bell around 1990 and was greeted by a long haired guy with earrings in both ears, that looked like he SLEPT in his uniform.
If I pulled that kind of crap in 1984 I would have been fired. Or realistically never hired in the first place.
FGS, why can an employer not set hygiene standards for employees?
It's part of the appeal and the brand.
