Remember that old saying, “What goes around, comes around”?

Try refusing anything like that here in America and the wrath of the liberals and gubmint will fall upon you with heavy hand. The day will come (and soon I hope) when the people will rise up agains’t all the PC BS.

“A spokeswoman said the company’s policy for many years had been to try to accommodate staff of all religions by finding them roles where conflicts would not arise.

“On this occasion this person’s preferences were not taken into account and she ended up on the tills, which was a mistake,” the spokeswoman said. “We would like to apologize for any resulting confusion and reassure our customers that this was an isolated incident.”
