She will only receive a fraction of that amount, but still quite a bit.

Who says Christianity is under attack?

Damn, I wish I would've known this back then.

Don't take a job that requires you to work on whatever special days you decide you need to have.

Imagine if this lady was a healthcare worker or first responder, etc. ��

Oh well. Good for her.

per the article--

. . . she informed her employer from the beginning of her employment that she could not work Sundays because of her religious beliefs.

Not bad $$$ (21 million) for a dishwasher. Employers out there, you have been warned! Remember, there are many different religions with many different religious beliefs.


But if a baker can refuse to make a cake based on religious beliefs, where does this end?

You like it when people get free money, I see the pattern.

I’m a Christian and I think it’s a joke. Like our court system isn’t busy enough.

Did you feel the same way about the cake baker?

So this is really a lawsuit about breach of contract?
