be muslim at a trucking company and you get money for not doing your job of delivering alcohol because of your religous views.
but if you are christian, and you do not want to serve homosexual couples on their wedding day you get fined, threatened with jail, or lose your business, then that is just fine.
double standards for muslims and christians.

I'm sure that trucking company (possibly others too) will never hire another Muslim again.
what's next? they refuse to deliver non halal food?
why bother hiring them?
Somali cab drivers in MN lost their dispute when they tried to refuse giving passengers a ride who had a dog. is there anything that doesn't offend these people?

Not really. There was the case of the Muslim cab drivers where they were told that they would have to pick up passengers with dogs or alcohol or lose their licenses.
The issue in the truck driver case is that they company said that they could have easily shifted the Muslim drivers to other deliveries. If the bakeries had said that I personally won't make your cake, but someone in the store will, then there wouldn't be a problem, the problem was complete refusal of the service period.
The EEOC found that the employer in this case could have made a reasonable accommodation, but refused to do so.
Kim Davis *was* offered reasonable accommodation - let her employees issue wedding licenses - but refused to accept it. It took a few days in jail to get her to see what was an obvious solution to just about everybody else.
Edited to add - personally, I don't think anyone should be able to refuse to do their job - or refuse to serve customers - because of religious beliefs, but the law disagrees with me.
So muslims refuse to drive a truck with alcohol in the back.... a product that might bring people together BUT they line up to drive a truck loaded with bombs.... a product that can tear people apart, literally...

You know, you're absolutely right. It IS a double standard. That fat ugly bigot Kim Davis should have been fired too.
That is interesting. However the media was at war with Kim Davis and she ended up in jail for a time for not doing her job, but here are 2 muslims that refuse to do their job and get awarded a big sum of money.
a little double standard.
