Muslim flight attendant suspended for refusing to serve alcohol
Posted: Sep 8, 2015
I wonder how this will go down the Kim Davis' supporters.
My bolding.
(CNN)A Muslim flight attendant says she was suspended by ExpressJet for refusing to serve alcohol in accordance with her Islamic faith.
In a bid to get her job back, Charee Stanley filed a discrimination complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Tuesday for the revocation of a reasonable religious accommodation.
She wants to do her job without serving alcohol in accordance with her Islamic faith -- just as she was doing before her suspension, her lawyer said.
"What this case comes down to is no one should have to choose between their career and religion and it's incumbent upon employers to provide a safe environment where employees can feel they can practice their religion freely," said Lena Masri, an attorney with Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

[ In Reply To ..]I said this would happen when the bakery refused to make a cake for a gay couple. We all live in sin of one kind or another. We all live in glass houses and should not throw stones.
All this does is further divide Americans and further the destruction of our country.
I have said and I will continue to say religious beliefs have no place in business.
I hope her suspension stands and nothing comes of it. In my opinion she refused to do her job so she should be fired just as Kim Davis should be removed from her job.
Can you imagine going to a doctor and because you smoke, drink or are overweight they refuse to treat you?
Well stated. - Dix

The difference is she knew before she got the job that - this was part of her job

[ In Reply To ..]Bottom line if you cannot perform your job duties for whatever reason then you should resign. Not expect to be exempt because of your religious beliefs.
The Pledge of Alleginace was taken out of school because it has the word God in it and was offensive to others. The 10 commandments was taken out of a court house because it was "offensive" to other religions. Government properties stopped putting up the manger at Christmas time because of others belief. What does Christmas stand for? It stands for the birth of Jesus yet people were upset about it being displayed.
Where I work someone was offended by saying Merry Christmas and tried to get that changed to Happy Holidays. We shot that down real quick.
We used to be able to choose whether or not we vaccinate our kids. You see what happened there, now its not an option anymore. Well neither should doing your job. I don't agree with working on Sundays because that is the Lord's day. So does that mean I should expect to get a job that requires me to work on Sundays just because of my religious beliefs?
Catholics do not believe in birth control. So if I want to get my tubes tied I would then have to ask what religion the doctor is before consulting him for a tubal?
And the list could go on and on.
We all believe differently in certain respects and we are entitled to our beliefs but we are not entitled to push those beliefs on anyone else.
Another version of Kim Davis ... but ... - different religious faith. NM

Speaking of the rule of law, why aren't our - immigration laws being enforced?
[ In Reply To ..]Can we pick and choose what laws we want to enforce now?
I bet she wouldn't bake a cake for a gay couple - either, or issue a marriage license.
[ In Reply To ..]Anyhooo,
She hadn’t heard that stewardesses serve booze on airliners — when she applied for the job? Sounds like a set up to me.
Big difference between a government position - to uphold laws and a job
[ In Reply To ..]at an airline.
The airline accommodated her until they received coworker complaints.
She has not said that she will not allow anyone else to serve alcohol to the passengers, just that she cannot.
I would opt for offering her a position in another part of the airline business or perhaps she could serve on the Muslim bound flights (don't know if they service that part of the world or not), but that might work out just fine, might even serve the passengers better.

Baltimore, MD (KTNV) -- A student in Baltimore was suspended over breakfast. 7-year-old Josh Welch was eating a Pop-Tart at school. A teacher saw the pastry and said she thought it looked like it was being shaped into a gun. The teacher also said she heard Welch say, "Bang Bang" while he was holding it. That was enough to get him suspended. Welch said his teacher got it completely wrong, "It was already a rectangle and I just kept on biting it and tore off the top, and it kind of ...

Nurse Refusing To Perform CPRMar 04, 2013
There is such a ruckus about the nurse at a senior home refusing to help an elderly person there who has collapsed, called 911 and not doing CPR as the woman at 911 pleading her to do so. Others are up in arms about this but the family of the elderly woman apparently not so. What others do not know is what were the elderly woman's wishes, did she and/or the family have something in effect that said no resuscitation, no heroic efforts or the like. Apparently this senior home in California ha ...
Alcohol, Tobacco, And FirearmsDec 18, 2012
I read with interest the various arguments about how tighter gun control will not reduce gun violence. One of the more popular arguments advances the idea that those who want to kill will find a way to get a gun. I don't doubt that this is true, but let's take this idea for a little walk around the park, shall we? We would all probably agree that minors who want to consume alcohol or tobacco will find a way to get it. So, why do we even bother with these silly laws that prohibit mi ...
Why Is Issa Refusing To Include All Gunrunning OpsJun 24, 2012
