Just seen a CNN news report. The gist is "Muslim Fight attendant refuses to serve alcohol on plane". Is this not in the job description upon application?
They didn't ask her to give BJ's or do anal it's just serving drinks ffs....
What would your employer say if you refused to fulfill certain aspects of your job?
When is this $hit gonna end???
As a flight attendant I'd be overjoyed/counting my blessings to work in an environment where gettin shot outta the sky is not a risk.
Just a rant I guess....

Far as I'm concerned I get refusing working with hazardous materials, or dangerous environments. However this is a doozy, part of accepting employment is being able to fulfill the description therein. Is this actually not a breach of contract? The poor airline is running scared to be " politically correct". I say they should change their position 180degrees and stand up for their own rights as an employer.
At the heart of the problem honestly beyond "beliefs" is the news agencies themselves are spineless. They should do poles I suspect the majority of the vote would be "termination for breach of contract"...

Not only are news agencies spineless, they tend to be on the side of "anti-establishment".............unbelievable how many news casts we see and that sympathetic attitude comes through loud and clear.

The following is a joke but seems very true:


1. Teaching Maths In 1950s

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production
is 4/5 of the price. What is his profit?

I have purposely left out #2, #3, and #4 to make a point.

5. Teaching Maths In 2000s


A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish and inconsiderate and cares

nothing for the habitat of animals or the preservation of our woodlands. He does this so

he can make a profit of $20. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for
class participation after answering the question: How did the birds and squirrels feel as

the logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong answers, feel free to express

your feelings e.g, anger, anxiety, inadequacy, helplessness etc.)



Should you require debriefing at conclusion of exam there are counsellors available

to assist you to adjust back into the real world.

I think we need to stand up for our beliefs too. If they don't want to live like we have then go back to where you came from. This is my belief. We all need to wake up before its too late.

Our way of life has become unicorns, pink tutu's and a soft underbelly that reeks of weak thinking. Time to take back our way of life before the hole is to deep to climb back out of.

It's already to late. We all know this to be true.

Can't be like the sheeple and believe that voting in the ndp has created all these issues. It started way before 6 months ago. It doesn't matter who is voted in. At the end of the day they are all greaseball politicians.

Well if we keep electing left leaning government like Knothead and her NDP socialist it is only going to get worse. Better vote in the next election NDP are coming on federally too.
How did you get there from a muslim flight attendant refusing to serve booze? Or a muslim chef refusing to cook pork?

If there really were a "God/ divine being" and your kids were doing all the bad $hit that currently is/has been going on in this world would you not step in?
Religion is a crutch for the weak not to mention the catalyst for the vast majority of atrocities going on. If the human race is to survive/flourish as a species we had better rethink our beliefs...
Funny how for example convicts facing the death penalty find religion. This is not belief it is survival....
