A North Dakota Target is facing backlash for firing a woman who wrote 'Trust in Jesus' on her name tag.

Denise Kendrick, an employee of the store in Fargo, said she was fired on November 16 over a dress code issue.

She put 'Trust in Jesus' and a drawing of a cross on her name tag for that shift, but was approached by a manager who told her she could not wear it, according to KVLY.

'I replied, "Well, I've seen people with rainbows on theirs. I'm going to continue to wear this name tag," and then they said, "Well, you can't work here anymore,"' Kendrick said.

She said she asked for a reason why she was fired, but was only give a list of information about the dress code policy.

'I said, "Can I get it in writing why you're firing me?" and they refused to do that,' said Kendrick

'They gave me this paper with all these phone numbers on it and said, "If you have any questions about the violation of the dress code, just call one of these numbers." And he just kept repeating it, and we just kept going back and forth, and it was going nowhere.'

Kendrick said she was wearing a plain long sleeve red sweatshirt and jeans when she was fore. She said she had been wearing other religious apparel for months and never had an issue.

'I had no problems with anyone approaching me with my Christian shirts,' said Kendrick.

According to Target's policy, 'Target is an equal opportunity employer that prohibits discrimination and will make decisions regarding employment opportunities, including hiring, promotion, and advancement, without regard to the following characteristics: race, color, national origin, religious beliefs.'

There’s a Giant near my home that I pass every day. All the check-out cashiers are muzzys and wearing that curtain thing. It offends me. I bypass it every day for another grocery store.
Why doesn’t Giant fire all of them?

I actually expected it to be over something like I saw at the shopping center this morning, Saturday.
A fat young tattooed woman wearing a bra and short short cutoffs

Acting like she’s normal. She’s common but not normal

But ya ban Christianity

This kind of insanity just got voted out and yes in a landslide

Find a good attorney- Like from the Rutherford Institute and this woman will win and be set for LIFE!!

This is prima facie evidence they do not follow their own guidelines as stated everywhere on their websites and in their Human Resource documents.

WIN! Fight, Ma’am and WIN! Jesus is Lord, and you are free to say so just as useless turd LGBTQRSTUV screw ups on their “sexual” choices as a determinant factor of themselves and their “beliefs” whatever crap that is.

Stupid woman. She should have put “I support Abortion on Demand” instead and they probably would have promoted her.

I haven’t set foot in a Target for decades and will never do so again. They can stick their leftist woke garbage in their ear.

From 2020, on a Target employee in a BLM muzzle...

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/target-employee-says-n-y-customer-demanded-she-remove-black-n1232597

If the customer was telling the truth, the headline is a lie.

And the customer was told to leave.

We haven’t shopped in a Target store for many years. I believe the last time I entered one was in Greer, SC, to have photocopies made, or photos processed, or something like that that, and that had to be 20 years ago.

Draw a rainbow with an ark under it. The word, “Promise” or similar.

Well, I don’t shop the local Target much, but never really noticed any obvious LGBTQWhatever stuff in there, but if I do in the future I have the right to refuse their offers.
