A Muslim flightattendant has filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEO) claiming she was suspended from her job for not serving alcohol which is against her religious beliefs.
Lena Masri, an attorney for the Council of American Islamic Relations Michigan (CAIR), says Charee Stanley followed managements directions, working out an arrangement with her coworkers to accommodate passenger requests for alcohol.
However, Masri said, ExpressJet Airlines put Stanley on administrative leave after another attendant filed an Islamophobic complaint that referenced Stanleys head scarf.
We notified ExpressJet Airlines of its obligation under the law to reasonably accommodate Ms. Stanleys religious beliefs, Masri said at a news conference in Farmington Hills on Tuesday.
Instead, ExpressJet close to violate Ms. Stanelys constitutional rights, placed her on administrative leave for 12 months after which her employment may be administratively terminated.
Masri said the arrangement Stanley had with other attendants to serve the alcohol for her had been working out just fine since Stanley converted to Islam about a month after becoming a flight attendant for ExpressJet.

No. With the way things are going in this country, if this woman’s case went to the Supreme Court, they would rule in her favor. You see, as a Muslim, her religious beliefs are protected, but Christians are no longer.
She thought she was working for Emirates.
Oh wait, they serve alcohol too.
This is crap. She knew what the job entailed before she signed on for it. It’s not like someone suddenly decided to allow alcohol to be served on flights.
...Stanley converted to Islam about a month after becoming a flight attendant for ExpressJet.

How interesting. Any jihad plans for the aircraft she flies on?
I’d like to believe your narrative, but I am troubled that she has plans to take down a jet.
Excellent. Post the video here.
I see muslims all over airports. They work for stores and even for the TSA. I haven’t had a flight attendant in a head scarf - yet. Why do we put up with this?
She’ll be paid for doing nothing.
