Disney is a place where the visitors suspend reality. I don't want to see Muslim women in head scarves at Disneyworld. I don't mean visitors, I mean employees.
It's because when I see a woman in a headscarf, I start getting upset about the oppression of women. I don't see any Muslim men going around in clothing to hide themselves. When I'm on vacation, I don't want to be reminded of the oppression of women.
Furthermore, I'm sick and tired of accomodating Muslims in this country, who fail to voice disapproval of those who kill our soldiers. I could give a s**t if she's offended.

Exactly...I don't see an issue. A job might have certain requirements...if you can't do them...don't work there.

Oh, Calvin.

I run around these threads just to explain to folks that a "Right to Work" state has nothing to do with "at will employment."



the "Right To Work" thanggg simply means that an employee doesn't have to join a union to work in suchaplace....

Thank you for correcting me...I simply misspoke. I knew it didn't sound quite right when I said it, and was wrong. I should have been more careful.

But....if Florida is an "at will employment" state, I don't see an issue.

There usually is no issue until the cries of "harassment" or "discrimination" are heard..and depending on the race/gender of the "victim" how much it gets publicized.
